Thanks guys. Been a fun thread and seems about right the consensus on age. Good humor Catch... I did not see the sign you mention however because Bucksnbears told me NEVER wander into the whitetails bedding area and as well as he knows deer, I listen.

Do you have enough deer to choose which one you shoot? If your going to eat him better get him before he starts losing fat!! mt No Marten I don’t eat whitetail much anymore. I’ve been waiting years now for the deer here here to make a rebound. It’s been 5-6 years since I’ve seen a good buck around and this year I have a pair. It’s interesting on three cameras over 3 square miles in good locations I am almost 3-1 bucks to doe ratio. One might think Mother Nature would go the other way with low population. I will decide if I see this guy in front, wether to take him. Looks ok for the wall now. Meat will be hung to age then donated. Osky

What kind of cam you using that has a white flash. I had one back in early 2000 but stopped using it because it ate c size batteries. I can see it is wild game from photos but was wondering if it is one of the older models. Jby... It is an older model. They sent a bunch to me maybe 12-15 years ago? This is pretty large bodied and takes 4 D batteries. Of the 6 or so sent maybe 3 are still working this being the largest one. I also have the reconx cameras and I do not care for the dark night "flash". The reconx's do take awesome day pictures. They are spendy, but bulletproof. Wish this cat would have come out of the shade but you see the clarity in the trees etc. Osky

How Old Is Your Camera (White Flash)? Don't You Just Love Scrapes And Licking Trees K9 I think that big old camera is 12 years old maybe older? Yes I much prefer the good old flash myself. I am very remote tho and don't have any worry that they will walk away. That camera takes 4 D batteries and I have goofed up at times and set it up with wind blown weeds in front so I know I can get at least 4 thousand pictures out of a set of batteries. Deer can be a bit touchy flash wise? This guy I have tons of pics doesn't seem bothered. The deer below showed up late in the deer season for one and only one photo around 5 years ago. I sure wish I had more of him... Osky
