Legacy- 2014 Deer Woods

[Legacy]

Well the grind of fishing season is coming close to the end which means the hunting season is creeping up on us. In just a few weeks time the boat will be put away for the season and some of us will be enjoying our time in the archery woods. My hope for this upcoming season is to post an ongoing hunting report (on this thread) throughout the entire season. Basically a play by play of the my entire seasonal progression and a ride on the emotional roller coaster in the deer woods. My intentions are to fill these pages with instant updates from the woods, game cam pictures, videos, rut reports, and whatever else that i can come up with. Let the season begin!

Sounds good! With the acorns we have and bucks I got patterned I hope my report is a short one. look forward to the reports I'm ready to read some hunting reports.

Ive always had game cameras but a few years ago I really started utilizing them for scouting (and also entertainment). For the past 3 seasons i have had 5-7 cameras in the woods from mid august through start of gun season. During gun season I only have about 3 cameras in the woods (only because im in fear of theft). Cameras have proven to be a great scouting tool for me but they are truly addicting.

 

Heres some big bucks that I have on film from 2013...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This past year, I figured it was time for some new game cameras, so in the off season I purchased 6 Moultrie D65IR. I starting putting them in the woods in late August, and as of last weekend, all six are now in the woods. Im excited to get some great video footage this year.

Heres a couple of small bucks from a card I pulled from one of the new cameras about a week ago...

I didn't get up this year fishing due to my brothers battle with cancer, but he was in partnership in a hunting camp in up stateNY and I got invited to take his place this year and I must say I'm exited to get to hunt NY state white tails.I don't know exactly where it is but it's not far from the WigWam bar. I was at that bar once while I used to snowmobile a lot up there. I think the last I rode sled up there was back in 2000. We are coming up the week before Thanksgiving!!

Yea Booneville rings a bell, thanks. Carl the owner and my brothers best friend has the cabin way back in the sticks and he said "you won't see a single sole up here" he also mentioned there is a huge swamp near by but I assume there are a lot of those LOL.

2012 Game Cam Pictures

[Chas0218]

I too am looking forward to hitting the woods.  I hope I can post up some nicer photos this coming weekend when I pull my cameras for the first time. The area I hunt has tons of acrons on the ground so it should be a great year. 

 

On a side note would it be illegal to rake up a pile of acorns in front of my camera to get some still photos? I mean they are from the same forest not being transported or hunted over just simply for photos?

Yes. It is considered baiting. I would suggest putting the camera where the acorns are. Deer should be on them at least until the end of the month. (or until they are all gone)

Awesome idea to post reports! I will be reading them for sure!

[dvdegeorge]

Cool I do this on another hunting forum "live from my stand" 24hourcampfire.com

http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/8227144/1

This year I'll also use my Go Pro for video footage

Trail cams help for sure, last years before and after

Lots and lots of shooting!

Rob - You keep shooting like that and you won't have any arrows left by the time season comes around! You'll be shooting the knocks right off your other arrows!  That is a great grouping though.

Got him three days after checking my camera.

200-250 range  His ass isnt really wide with a big belly to put him higher.

[JakeyBaby]

Got this on trail cam this past Tuesday 9/16 in Monroe County! He came by the camera at 7:11 am 1:10pm and again right at dusk. For some reason I cant get the morning and evening pics to work.
