OKbucks

A few minutes before dark, I saw the BIG buck out in the area where my camera is set up... don't know if he ever got in front of it, but will be checking first thing in the morning after the young ones come through.   I hope so... would love to have a picture of him.

Season ends on the 10th.  Biggest buck I've ever had in my area came in late yesterday afternoon.  Huge 10-point... massive antlers, heavy body.  I started to take him, then just didn't.  If he comes back, I may.  I'm really not big on trophy hunting, but he is an exceptional creature... maybe just let him improve the herd as much as possible.  He was chasing a doe when he came through, but stopped and tested the corn for a bit before going back to work.  Don't know if he made it by the deer cam, he was never close enough to get a phone photo and I could not find Lori's camera.  She moved things around last week and I have NO idea what she did with that camera.  Perhaps I'll find it today.  

I had deer lined up in my backyard this morning saying "where's the food???" (didn't throw any out last night)

They just keep coming... 

My youngest cat thinks he can take a deer... they are under a year old, but I keep telling him they are tougher than they look...

Here's a couple more...

Kinda bummed out right now... I've only got 12 deer in my yard right now... had 15 a couple days ago.  One is a REALLY nice, big 8-pointer, though... he is beautiful.  A yearling spike and a bunch of does and babies... three of the babies(one set of twins) don't have mothers, somebody shot them when the babies were still in spots.  I've been feeding them and one of the old does has kind of taken them under her wing... she hangs out with them three or four days a week.  

How does one get a tag as a limey?

There were two more in the background, as big or bigger, but just partials of antlers...
