Beautiful evening in the blind....

Temp was 61 here this morning and barely made it into the 70's with north wind and cloud cover all day. It was not raining anymore so I decided to go sit in the blind to see if the deer moved early before dark in the cooler temps. They did move well saw 9 or 10 bucks and 9 or 10 does. I saw one buck that I had not gotten any trail cam pics of but had seen him 3 other times back in July and early August. Low clouds and a bit darker than I would have liked but it still made for some good photos.

awesome pictures

gets me excited for the upcoming best time of year

Just beautiful to watch and take pictures of

deer look good n'solid, mostly mature (5+) it seems

Great pictures and animals .

Great pictures and deer.

Holy heck, I think anyone would be grateful for the opportunity to take any of those bucks. That one with the split tines like a mulie is awesome!

Great pictures.

Nice bucks but the green grass excites me more than they do. Wish it was that green in my pastures.

Great pictures stxr!

I love the tall tined main frame 9, maybe he is a 10 if he has a small g4 on his right. He has a crooked left brow.
Is he 4 or 5??

Nice!

Looking good.

Is that turned soil a food plot you're getting ready?

Couple are 3 and rest are 4 to 7+.

I had 4"+ in May, 4"+ in June, 4"+ in July....last rain in July was the 29th...it did not rain again till Aug 27th when I had .20"...with the string of 100+ days in August and Sept I had cracks in the ground...in last week I had about .15" scattered over 8 days but some cloud cover...then on the 9th I had .90" to 1.01" in the gauges...no cattle on that taller grass is why it is green, if I had some pics of the shorter grass areas you would not see any grass..just dirt.

Not real sure on his age since I had him at 3 some days last year and 4 other times I would see him. He was an 8 pt last year and a 5x5 with one kicker this year. Still on the fence this year but I am thinking more 5 after seeing him yesterday. Never seen him in a feed pen on TC or when hunting.. just feeding around them.
Last year as an 8pt:





Thanks everyone

Yes I plowed up all my plots back in early July...waiting on rains which I got night before last so I can either redisc or spray the new growth. I will then drill in some oats and mabe some clover in early October.

Great pics stx as always. Those deer look healthy.

Great pics, I like that 9 pt.

Great pictures as always....

WOW
He looks 3.5 in half last's year's pics and 4.5 in the other half.
SMDH

Definitely a hard one to call but I'm thinking in a few weeks when his neck swells he is going to look more 5.5 than 4.5.

Really pretty buck and if he is 4.5, he could really be something at 5 & 6 years old!

Great photos as usual.

Great pics, as always. Looks like a couple of those boys are getting ready to square off here soon.

Your feed set ups (and quality of deer) are an inspiration to us all.

Nice bucks, man. I enjoyed viewing - all the horns look great 'fresh' out of velvet and before they get all banged up and broken!

Thanks again everyone

Love the cool down.

Man are you in luck!!! I have all five if my tags still!!!!

Great work as always STW

Man are you in luck!!! I have just the buck for you!!!

Thanks again everyone
