Thought it would be cool to start a thread with deer taken on State Land. These two were both taken on state land in 7R this year. The big 8 was shot by my buddy and I’m holding it up just for size comparison ‘Bout Time Mike

No DEC in 7R but did get checked by Forest Rangers ‘Bout Time Mike

Guys down at camp took two. One 7 and a beautiful 8 that had great mass. For me I saw zero ‘Bout Time Mike

One spike in field in way in. I sat and watched him for 15 minutes until he walked off. Made it to stand and had a fisher and a fox come through 5 minutes apart. Spike came back and worked field edge and then was gone. Cameras were pretty quiet last night. ‘Bout Time Mike

Cameras were active all night and early Morning. Busted by a doe on my way into the stand this morning. Had this guy come within 10 yards of me. It took him 40 minutes to cover 80 yards. He was checking every bed and had his nose in the air searching the entire time. Took his time and just wandered off. Now just need to big guys to do the same ‘Bout Time Mike

One squirrel so far for me today. Cruising last night and one daytime yesterday ‘Bout Time Mike

All nighttime movement for me so far. Nothing seen during daytime. Does are coming to fields 5 minutes before/after sunset. ‘Bout Time Mike

Had over 80 pics from last night between 645pm - 545am this morning. 5 different bucks and a ton of doe. Wind was not in my favor so I had to sit in a stand I normally save for gun season. With the leaves gone and timber removed from logging i quickly realized it had to go. I found a nice transition area from field/hardwoods to bedding area with some thick stuff. Two fresh scrapes along the edge. It looks promising. ‘Bout Time Mike

We are at $25 / acre ‘Bout Time Mike

Tough weekend for us. One deer in cut bean field at 620 am on my walk in, too dark to see what it was. Perfect conditions but no movement. All cameras have been dead including nighttime movement. Rain here for next two days .... ‘Bout Time Mike

Must be the day. I let them walk but it was tough to watch them sit there for 20 minutes ...... ‘Bout Time Mike

Just settled in. First sit for this stand this year. Pinch point between fields and bedding area ‘Bout Time Mike

Good deeds often will be rewarded. ‘Bout Time Mike

That is my property. It is a 250 acre farm that the owner leases out to to Co-Op. I am at the mercy of what they plant and when they harvest. My “section” is between a bedding area and the crops. I either get movement first light/last light or not at all. I’d love to own a piece of my own to plant some plots but I cannot complain as I have somewhere to hunt ‘Bout Time Mike
