Finished our deer stands and deer are showing up

Well we almost completed our blinds, still need to build one more ladder and that's it.
We put our cams out last week. But I think I screwed up the date and times, so I will need to
check when we go back this week to put out more apples.

But we do have deer already coming. The buck is coming to my son's stand so I mentioned that we should maybe
trade stands as I don't want him to get scared. :moose:

The first picture is from my stand and there is a fawn behind the tree.

The other pics are from my sons stand.
They really seem to like the pears.

Nice, best of luck to you and your boy

Those pictures are very good. What type of camera are you using?

Some brands I bought off of Amazon for 59.99 bucks each.

haha. think i got a couple of the same cameras. really happy with them. third pic is cool. best of luck!

I tried several of the cams from Canadian Tire, to equal the Chinese junk cam I bought for 60 bucks I would have to spend 200 at Canadian Tire.

I bought 3 cams for 180.00

So do you know the brand? Model? Off hand. Id like to get a couple myself.

Was out to our stands Thursday to dump some bait and back out today to finish my ladder checked the camera and 2 Does and a fawn at mine as well as Moose Tracks not far from my camera. My son had a does and a fawn at his.

Still have a few things to do on the stand, going to add a few vertical pieces like a fence so my son can't fall out.

This is a pic from my Cam.

Well it appears we have lot's of deer from my Cams I have seen a spike horn, a 4 pointer, 3 Does and a fawn at my Camera.
At my son's we see a 5 point and an 8 point 2 does and a fawn. I'm thinking the 2 does and fawn are the same ones for both stands.

But there are at least 4 bucks, 3 does and a fawn. So 8 deer stopping by.

We now have lot's of corn to put out and apples as well as I have picked up some syrup and I think I will try using peanut butter when the season actually starts.

As long as the weather cooperates all that will be left is for us to do our part.

Looking good gw. Good luck

Went out to put some bait and add the burlap around our stands. I checked the cameras and found out I didn't turn them on last time.

Here's a picture of my son's Stand. Nothing fancy but it works. Might put a roof on it for him, haven't decided yet.

GW..if you see a drop in deer sightings it might be due to the burlap. You should wash it in scent free soap and hang outside for a few weeks before you take it into the bush. The stuff stinks like hell. I found out years ago when it forced me to abandon my favourite stand because the deer would not come near it (NO pics on cam after I put it up).

Otherwise looks like a great setup with good all round visibility.

If your worried about the new smell throw or spread some rasberryberry jello powder on and about it. Stuff is magic

Well it's seems we have the Brady Bunch Raccoon's making the rounds at our bait sites. They stole the peanut butter we put out for the deer.
Still seeing the two Doe's and a fawn, seems the 4 small bucks we were seeing have left or maybe someone in another section got them.

But it seems everyone is showing up at night now. We have not been out there much and speaking to the other people also hunting near buy they have not been out much either.

We did see a new picture on my son's camera. He was there yesterday morning, about 7 hours before us.

Too bad about coons they chase away deer

I thought that but we had pictures of the coons and deer eating together.

Since when? My cameras have taken several hundred pictures in the last 4 weeks of deer eating and the coons sitting watching, or visa versa. Other than the fact the coons pig out on all the corn, it sure hasn't kept the deer away.
