I quit running trail cams for a few years and this year decided to start over and catalog some deer. I figure with seasons pretty much done why not share. No need for location stuff etc. Just though it would be fun to see what hand guys were dealt this year and what they know happened to a few of them. I spread it out over a couple of posts do to the 8 photo limit on here.

Here is a sampling of the ones I found interesting that I had on camera in 2016 and the status that I know or don't know about them.

In this photo, the one to the far left is a big 6. My 17 year old daughter killed him with a muzzleloader during our youth season in late September. The one in the far back is the 11 pointer that I killed on November 4th with my bow. The one in the center is a good buck that I never saw while hunting, but I know he made it because I just got new photos of him last week.

Then there are all of the others
This buck here measured right at about 148". I had many trail cam photos of him along with photos of him fighting with the buck in the next photo down. He was killed by a friend of mine with a bow in mid October, 2 1/2 miles from where I had photos of him the day before. The taxi aged him at 5 1/2 years old. He was a tank of a deer and when field dressed bottomed out my buddy's 250# scale.

This nice buck was killed by a neighbor who is a great guy and whom I share deer info with. He killed this deer with a shotgun on our opening weekend in mid November.

Here is photo of those two bucks from above fighting the night before the bigger of the two was killed in mid October.
