2024 Trail Camera Thread

[woodsdog2]

I saw this buck I call “The Blade” or just “Blade” maybe twice on camera during the entire season and never saw him on this particular property until late October or early November. Here he beds down right in front of the camera for over two hours last night/this morning!

Do you think he’s 2.5 or 3.5?

 

[NMSbowhunter]

Hard to say but my guess would be 2.5 years.

 

[Arrowsquirrel]

I would guess 2.5 also

 

[woodsdog2]

That’s what I think too.

I’m actually leaning towards 3.5 but only because of the fat schnoz and the heavy brisket. Everything else says 2.5.

Only dirty ‘yotes in 2024 but like clockwork, their activity has increased exponentially since Christmas and will likely only get worse through about Easter. My other cell cam’s solar panel hasn’t seen the sun until yesterday, so it’s dead and probably missing the majority of my shed bucks. Oh well, I’m hunting near there later today, I’ll snag it and charge it and check the card then.

yes

Got one this morning that will be a shooter next year. I had just found a bench on some public a week before season ended. Loaded with deer sign and and very little pressure.

Both bucks that I hoped survived gun season did and showed up on cam at the same time sparring in December. Obviously not giants by any means but I have some sheds from a buck with a very similar profile as that ten with the same relative home range that ended up blowing up about 4 years ago.

Big yote or wolf? First pic is a 2yo doe, second is the animal in question, roughly the same spot… huge animal.

I have 3 shooters that made it through the season here in Ky! Hopefully they will put on some more mass and I can get a chance at one of them this fall! All these are old mature bucks, I’ve had them on camera the last three seasons!

My guess is a coyote judging by the posture and the narrowness of the profile, as well as the short legs (generally wolves have longer legs compared to height, this dog looks more squat) and not that it’s a dealbreaker for wolves but I’d expect more than one if it was a wolf, though it’s a big ass coyote for sure.

Yote!

Yote!

I got the high res image and the ears look like a coyote. It’s a biggun

 

[woodsdog2]

They’re dropping.

 

[woodsdog2]

Nice heavy antlers to. That's a good one. You'll have to post them up in the shed antler thread

Got one just dropped a side. I’ll go on this weekend and see if o can find the set. He’s staying in one area so they should be findable.
