You in the background? Buck walking by your stand

Yes, I have a camera on this food plot. My home is about 40 yards to my right. The grass you see is my front yard. Been getting 500 pictures a day on this plot. Passed on this buck, to young. Saw 3-4 bucks chasing does all over this plot but they were not shooters.

Nice yard. I'm envious.
You figure that's a two year old or three?

He’s not 2 yet. 1 1/2 is my guess. Here’s a better picture of him.

Nope, I’ve got Alpha-Gal, can’t eat em, just shoot them. I usually have a couple of deer down by now but just hunting antlers this year and giving the meat away.

Are you sure it's the same deer in both pictures? The first pic it looks to be a lot wider than in the 2nd pic.

It must just be the angle.

Same deer, he ran all the does off and followed after a few minutes.

I tend to wonder like Esshup, that first deer looks much wider and larger in general than your second pic. Either way, it’s neat to deer running around in your yard.

Here is a prime example of “ground shrinkage “. Ever shoot a buck you could swear was huge only to recover it and it seems much smaller? It’s all about angles and your brain telling you it’s a monster. Happens to me all the time, it’s the same buck in both pictures I watched it go in front of me and back and forth for 5 minutes. I’ll post another picture my game camera took.
