This is my first camera. I noticed these shot look blurry and not nearly as clear as the first ones..  Any reason why?  Does the lens need cleaning or the batteries change?

Looks good to me...  You might want to wipe the lens...    Does it have a display to tell you battery strength???

I clean the lens cover with my tee shirt when it looks dirty. It's not uncommon for them to get water spots. I have had deer lick them too, looks like that may have happened on 9/29 at 5:53  ;D. I have no idea what makes them do that, but it's not unusual.

I decided to move the camera to another location about 300 yards away.  I think that 8 pointer is still the same one from in front of the pond, but he looks a little bigger now!





 
Me walking up today.....They say the camera adds 10 pounds, but I can blame it on the beer!

10?  Oh God, I'm drooling......It would be my first deer.

Question is....why are all my pics at night time only?  Where are they during the day or even early morning or late afternoon?

Big bucks don't get big by being stupid....they usually bed down for the day in the thickest spots and move just before dusk and mostly at night.  I would look for an area of thick brush and set up on a trail just outside of it on the way to where they seem to be feeding.

His neck is thickening up so he is in his territory...sounless you have a bigger boy...when those does come into season...he will holding close by...and he will be chasing...better plan on not working the first two weeks of November and wait for him to make a mistake...do you bowhunt?
