Just woundering what everything thinks about when to put the cameras back out to catch the bucks when they start to grow racks again. Clearly I should have left them out later this year because of a lack of finding sheds!

i leave mine out all year. in winter, spring, and summer i go check them about once a month and when late summer and fall comes around, i check them weekly..always have good results doing it that way. also a good way to get to know each and every deer in your woods

Been seeing the same thing (dead deer along the road) the last couple of weeks in Northern IL/Southern WI. It looks like Momma has kicked last year's babies out of the "group" so she can "drop" some new ones. It is just a little early this year....just like everything else! Wink

Thanks for all the input guys... I figured on putting them out this up coming weekend while im up chasin turkeys in richland center. On the way from mt horeb to verona yesterday I saw 3 dead deer and 2 of them were bucks. They had the antlers cut off, couldnt tell if they were just starting to grow or if they were still holding!

I'm going to put mine back out in July and pick them up in mid to late August. Then back out opening weekend of bow. It matters what you want pics of. If you want to watch the antlers grow. Then I would put them out ASAP. If you want to see what you have for the up coming season then putting them out in July to mid to late August will work for you. If you want to see when the fawns are born then I would put them out before late June.

Mine are out year round. I like to know where the bucks go to feed, to sleep, as well as where they roam. I also like to see the bucks drop their antlers and watch the new growth as it comes. Formerly Steve @ G & S
