Just in: Hey Mike! Just wanted to say hello and drop this on your screen to get u pumped for the 2015 season. Maybe a 200-incher TYPICAL! Should be a great “horn year” with all the rain we had early, send more pictures.
Here’s an update on the biggest and coolest buck I’ve seen growing in the summer of 2015. The hunter reports: So a storm blew over the tree this wireless camera is on, but you can still see he’s put on some serious growth since the last picture I had of him a month ago. This deer has a relatively large body, but his antlers actually make his body look small. The sleepless nights have already begun….

I would just love to see this deer in person! [...]
A lot of hunters have had their cameras out for weeks or months, but right now is when I like to start my annual big-buck recon in earnest.

The first time you sit in a tree stand—or the first time you set a cam—is the best time to shoot a big deer, or get an image of a giant like the one pictured here. Saturday [...]
From our friend and longtime blogger Scott from Michigan: Hi Mike: Only the end of June and this guy is looking pretty nice. Great brow tines, one starting to split, and thinking he could pop a couple G4’s yet. Hopefully he sticks around as these are the first trail cam pics of the year for me. Will check again in a couple weeks. From our friend John in PA: I made a trip up and back to the Allegheny National Forest yesterday to check cameras. No big deer but, here’s a pic of the 30 sheds I found on a few trips up there this spring. Some pretty nice [...]
From the Primos Hunting Facebook Page: This young albino deer found his way (onto) Pro Staff member Todd Imiola's trail cam. He named him "Casper.” Too cool! Bucks are really starting to put on the bone now, send us your pictures to gawk at.
