Don't forget your 'Corn Arrow'.....very important.

First modification to the trip mechanism. Took Flintnappers advice and raised the trip rope off the ground. Now they have to push the cinder block to get to the corn and dried molasses.
I went to check cameras this morning and nobody went in the trap, but a doe ate corn up to the door but didn't go in.
I'd just left the house in my SXS, crossed the creek and 30 of them crossed in front of me at 20 yards so i backed out EZ and added corn and molasses this afternoon. Just waiting on tomorrow morning.

Dang deer tripped my trap last night. Gonna have to raise my trip wire up higher.

Could be worse. Last week I had a super-blurry picture on the trail cam. Next pic was a dead deer laying by the tire that I have a 'T' type rope for the trigger going across. (It wasn't set.) 'Young buck apparently got his head caught in the mule tape, panicked, hit the working-pen cattle panel behind it (that the camera is mounted to), and broke his neck.
