A little scoutin today turned up a place where I thought I could take a doe.....First thing I see when I climb in is a napper!

After bein there a little while,from the opposite direction of what I figured comes the nontypical..

That looks a lot like the first deer I ever took, a spike with a kicker.
Good thread and great pics! Lookin forward to the rest.

Sorry bout pic quality on the last few,gettin darkish in the timber...
He also ends up 8 ysd almost downwind,he's a little more worried about shutter noise than Mr Spike,so he turns and moves off away from me,soon followed by a littermate with slightly wider rack,but shorter tines.
Hope ya'll enjoyed the show as much as I did.
Need to leave the camera in the truck tho,when the biggun shows up,wanna have my bow in hand,not the camera :knothead:
Looks like fun to me!
Thanks for the pics.
Thanks for sharing! Is that a big mag I in the last pic of the spike?
Bout the same, Zwickey Delta,my bro shoots Magnus,they're both great as far as we can tell.
Sweet!
Nice pics!!!

Great evening Kenny. Have you seen the double tine buck that Eric has on his trail camera?
Great pics Kenny. Thanks
Tripper,I've seen pics of him.Have yet to see him in person,don't think anyone else has either.
Rick said he has a pic in daylite tho,so maybe soon......... :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
great pix kenny!
Good stuff Kenny!!! Looks like a successful hunt to me!!!
:bigsmyl: :thumbsup:
EXCELLENT PIC'S!!!!!!! Don and Skyler
loved it! I always forget to carry my camera with me
I've started keeping my camera handy now. I had a small 6 pt. come out the other morning but I was afraid to dig in my pack to get my camera out. Since I got my camera I always try to take lots of pics each time I'm out.
Ain`t that how it goes...? head out hoping to shoot a doe, and end up with bucks all around.
When deer get too close my Zwickey`s sometimes go on auto-pilot. Arrow needs to be in the quiver to help control this. Just a warning. :D
Very cool :thumbsup:
sweet!
Hey, I enjoyed those pics...
nice pics thanks for sharing, i was gonna say you must have a nice quiet cammera for the deer not to hear it at 3 yards.. gotta love it when they get is CLOSE :eek: :eek:
Hey Tusker,that spike wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed ....yet!! :biglaugh:
