One of those feisty young bucks pushed my camera ****-eyed.
Congrats undeg01, nice buck!
Congrats George!
Probably a bird tipped my antenna over. The tip of it is in the lower right of the picture.
Maybe an overly aggressive buck tipped your feeder? I’ve seen some of your bucks. They are beasts, so it could happen.
It’s that time of year. I have bucks showing up that I’ve never seen before.
Thus guy just strolled in this evening. He is beefy, but appears to only be an 8 point.

im a little surprised i didnt see a few more familiar racks on cam, but id imagine theyll show up in the next week or two. they always do. as of now, the hit list is short. i only have 2 mature deer, both 6.5yo (presumed, but im almost positive theyre 6.5). and both are only on one cam- which is pretty odd for us.
this here is frank the tank. hes thinned down this year, but last year he was a good 100lbs heavier than any other deer we had. he honestly looked like a calf. i figured he had a thyroid issue and would die in the off season, haha. he was also really stupid last year, hopefully that trend continues cuz hes not safe this year.
this is sleven. we have an impossible to erase 7-pointer gene on my place. theres always one, it always has seven points, they all look almost identical and their name is always sleven. he had seven points last year. he grew an 8th this year. hes not a monster, but any old deer is trophy to us.
this hot mess doesnt have a name. but i like him very much. hes no older than 3.5yo . weve shot two of his recent ancestors that both went into the 160s and i think hes bigger now than either of them at that age.

If a buck could tip that thing over with almost 1000 lbs of feed . . . I'd really like to have a talk with him.Maybe an overly aggressive buck tipped your feeder? I’ve seen some of your bucks. They are beasts, so it could happen.
It's the camera though . . . I've had it happen here twice. I think I'm going to have to replace the camera stand.
I agree. My 1000# Boss Bucks appear to have a higher center of gravity than yours, and they’ve withstood some very high winds while empty and not gone over. You’d better be eating your wheaties if you intend to push them over while full.If a buck could tip that thing over with almost 1000 lbs of feed . . . I'd really like to have a talk with him.
