Guessing deer reuse the same bedding spot, lol.

Those 2 like that clean shady hammock.

Would love to see this pattern continue another month.



Picked up a new Tactacam Reveal X Pro today from Cabelas. Onsale and got a coupon for trading in an old Muddy camera I don't use anymore, $105 out the door. Going to mess around with it this weekend and maybe upgrade some of our other cameras. The pic above is from a SpyPoint link micro or something like that. Pics aren't great but 100 pics each month for free is hard to complain about.

Good looking deer and lots of green in that pic!

Thought we’d gotten rid of most of these guys, guess not. We call these our Texas Wannabe’s, lol. They’re wide like a Texas deer, they just never get the tine length like a Texas deer.

This was last year, don’t know if I have a problem this year or not. I caught these 9 and one more and the neighbor shot 14 more.

Good Lawd! Don’t think I’ve seen that many coyotes not trapped in one picture.

Good article on trail cam use to single out a mature buck.

It's about a 15 min read....but pretty good.

Thats a good read, thanks.

Swamp, y’all get any of that rain?

Got 3 tenths of an inch on the Turner County farm.

But, that rain line didn't make it this far south down here at the state line. I'm glad it didnt...we're still wet...even on the hill. All the bottoms remain full.

This was the cleacut in the riverbottom last week. The river is just behind the trees at the far backside of that "lake." River is back in its banks now and still dropping.

We only ended up with 1.3” but really needed it. Still didn’t get the main pond to its overflow, but did add some to the wet weather holes and created a few mud puddles. Our cover rows on the dove field will definitely benefit from it. Went riding right at daylight this morning and saw plenty of deer and dove in the dove fields. Saw 8 Tom’s (gobblers and jakes) together up front. And 2 gobblers and 2 jakes together in the back. Saw some hens and poults in the small pines but couldn’t get a count. Everything was active this morning except hogs!

Not a big one but the first hard horn buck.

Must have been trying for a selfie. It was inside a Cam loc box.

Ours still hanging on to that velvet. Not even seeing any starting to shed it yet or any rubs.

River-bottom bears....near the Ga-Fl line.

Hard-antlered. Right on time for here...mid-August....

Everyone is still holding on to their velvet over here…
Don’t know if this is the 8 from last year or not? If so he’s grown a lot, if not I like him.

That 8 is nice! Body features = older buck.

But..his tarsals dont even have any old staining.

Somewhere in Swamp Wolfs part of the world
