My camera is set up about 200 yards below my house.  I can see it from my window. In July I put out a mineral lick for the first time ever.  On a semi regular basis I would see deer but on Sept 9 I started adding 3 pounds of corn daily and have identified 13 different bucks since then.  I had seen quite a few of them in velvet but I am starting to see some that I have never seen before.  It is also getting me excited.  And I dont hunt this field, my wife would kill me first.  But I do hunt in the surrounding area.

In NY we're not allowed to feed or bait deer.

Gee, I hope there's no fence on that deer farm.  That could make this thread a whole lot more interesting.  ::)

Sorry, no fences, just my private land.  Just looked out the window and there is 17 turkeys eating the corn.  I read those reports about canned hunts ,etc. and wont get caught up in that thread.  I'm just trying to provide a little pre season excitement.

Yeah, I don't want to get that started again either.  I was just trying to be funny.  It's hard to be funny the day after your team turned in a clunker.
