Sometimes you just get an EPIC batch
The only thing missing is the booners, but i have a feeling it wont be long 
I went and checked the Cuddeback today after leaving it out on a mock scrape for 15 days. I dont think i ever went this long during the summer, but work/school and actually hunting took up alot of my time
Im pretty happy with my results, although the real big boys haven't shown yet. This mock scrape brought in everything, does, fawns, bucks, coyotes, turkeys, coon, squirrels...you name it, and it came.
A couple turkeys first, that gobbler has a bullseye on him since
our Fall season opened up on Saturday:
Now some 1.5 year old bucks that were hounding does, the pre-rut is kicking in here in Ohio:
This year im getting alot more doe traffic at scrapes then i have years past. No complaints about that, the real thing should help:
This boy is the biggest i got on camera this week. Looks to be a nice 2.5, and he would be my best buck ever. He didnt stop to investigate the scrape though:
More Does in daylight:
More turkeys either fighting or dusting IN my scrape..great

Does, ambient wildlife..gotta love the quality and trigger time on this capture:
Now my favorite series of photos from the week:
Bastard, ive had them come to my scrapes before but never roll in them. and coyotes usually dont stick around for the camera..ill get him if he comes close enough.
Boone and Crocket racoon. He must be part bear:
Getting the scrape ready for the next week:
Im beginning to think that the huge bedding area this is next too is a doe bedding area. Which is great for when the rut starts to kick in. Im going to be moving a stand to this location tomorrow possibly. Last year cfdjay nailed a doe near here, i may steal his tree this year
