Just seeing what some may say about having game cameras in the summer or off season for deer. Is there an advantage to checking them from May till start of new bow season or is May to early to start

Personally, I like seeing the velvet pictures and watching the antler growth.

Not sure if there is any value in it other than that. All my cameras are on my place, 30 minutes from our house, and we will be living there later this year.

I run em year-round and have for years.

I like to get to 'know' those old mature bucks. And, there are a lot of little idiosyncrasies that you can pick up on by watching them year-round.

And, I just LOVE watching em!!

Running cameras for deer during the summer is a waste of time for me. I'll start them in September.

Was thinking of putting one out after a scouting trip, but deer travel will change when food dries up and the pressure is on; still, I would like to see what's creep'n in dem woods.

I run mine all year, Get great pics on big well established salt licks now and into in the summer months. The deer will check them out regularly and travel to them from quite a distance, Especially if they hold water. I don't check them for a month or two at a time.

Just ribbing. I was admiring the pics and happen to notice the date. Cool pics.

Do y'all see bears very much on your place?

I usually don't. I figure that is time I'm taking off the life expectancy of my cameras. I just put them out when it counts.

I've had one up since the end of the season. Next chance I'll get it down and put it back up when the racks start developing to the point you can tell the real trophies from the guest bucks.


Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.
