Does anyone one else have their trail cams up and running? I have a few and deer are in their typical summer patterns. All bucks are still in velvet as of yesterday. In a forty acre area I have three seperate does on cam with their still spotted fawns. Two have singles and one has twins. Generally, I have only had one set each year in this area. I wonder if we are in for a population boom? Anyone else seeing any unique patterns or information on their areas herd?

I have bucks out of velvet. I have noticed more twins. I just wish we had last years apple crop! I've been hard pressed to find crab apples this year. My orchard is bare!!

I have 2 currently out but no bucks on either one. Actually one of them is not working proparly as I had some mineral and apples out. The apples have been aten and I recieved no pics from that one. That is a Wildgame Innovations trailcam, my other is a Stealth which has done great with does, bears, and moose. Just not seeing any bucks as of yet. I am thinking the moose are keeping the bucks away as I currently have videos of 5 different moose for sure and it is possable that it is actually 6 different ones. The biggest rack on them was videoed on June 29th with around 2 months more to grow I can hardly wait to see that monster again. I also will be setting my trail cam back to picture mode the next time I am in there.

Predate, you are right about the apples. I have a couple trees at the bottom of a runoff with some apples. The rest are completely bare.

Massman, I like the looks of that young buck. He looks to have good genetics and potential for a nice wide rack in a few years.

these are some bucks i caught on cam in PA at my main archery stand. I saw these bucks traveling together all the time this summer. I figure the basket rack 10 is maybe 3 years old, and might score 125. The wide 10 i figure is about 2 years old tops. and might score 105-110. If i get a chance i dont think im passing on either. To much of a chance someone else will get them, or maybe even a car.
