Thanks for the good words. Trail cameras are a lot of fun and collect an amazing amount of information. I’m gonna post a series of pictures of a buck we watched for over 5 years. We never did harvest him, the agreement me and my partner have is whoever sets up the camera gets first opportunity on the animals that show up. My buddy put in the work and over a 5 year period recorded a truly once in a lifetime buck. I had the tag twice and wouldn’t even go within 2-3 miles of the territory, I don’t think I could of handled the temptation. It’s a neat story and I’ve encouraged him to share it in an article someday. I helped maintain that camera during the period and we never told a soul, not one, we were able to keep it a secret. The buck met it’s demise in 2016 and the story ended, after that we shared some pictures with some mutual friends who are guides. I’ll try and post a few pictures of that buck from what we guess was four years old when he was found Him to around the age of nine. My own belief is that those big Muleys are weak after the rut and I believe lions get many of them each year. Their glands are stinking, their guard is down and they are weak. We find two or three big mature dead heads every year, this past January we found a beautiful typical, the skull was a year old and the rats had chewed the tips but he was a solid 190 class deer. I didn’t know if there was much interest in these pictures but there is enough to warrant posting this buck I’m talking about.
