RE: Deer Trail Camera Photos 2017
Wonderful pictures! Your camera is awesome!
One question: why do you not like venison? Did someone make it once wrong or serve you tainted meat? Some deer taste like pine-sol from what they eat. Corn fed deer taste wonderful, but need to be cooked properly.
@watchfulmomma, No bad experiences. I just don't care for the "gamey" taste.
I'll eat it, but prefer elk.
The deer here have access to cornfields, food plots, acorns and browse.
I don't have the mentality of say someone like....Troy R. where I need to "fill a freezer".
If I get an opportunity to harvest a deer, most would go to my parents, and I would take some too.
I did pass on several does this year. My nephew shot his first deer, a doe, during the firearm season.
I'd like to think I have some discipline while hunting.
I was aware there is 4 large mature bucks, but they were nocturnal.
The hunters surrounding my property did not get one either this year.
Seeing one of those four was my goal.
Thanks for the interest!
