Evening,
I've been following a couple nice bucks for a few months that I've been capturing on my trail cams at my daughters farm in Southwestern Ontario. Here's a number of pics of them. The latest capture is from October 12, 2023 and they are showing up during shooting hours....
Will be spending the next 3 weeks in my stands hoping for a crack at the big fella.
Cheers

I think you should get your 400 TD in fine shooting order right quick.
Good luck and don't miss

Nice deer, especially the one with the tall basket! The deer on my property are only showing up during legal hours on occasion. When more does and snow comes, that will all change.

I'd spend a lot more time in the stand if I knew that big boy was in the area. Good luck with him.

Sitting in your stand knowing one of those, or bigger competition can pop up at any time makes the sit a lot shorter it seems. Good Luck!

Good luck with the adventure!!
