Bucks you’ve never seen before...

I have the opposite problem, I get em on camera and never see them in person.

This is more like it for me.

Used to be the norm before feeders and game cameras.

Shot this fat 9 Thursday before the rifle opener this year. No history with him at all.

I have a couple. One in particular stands out. I'm hunting the very last Sunday of season, looking for a doe or something to add to the freezer. This buck steps out that I had never seen before, and bigger than anything I had seen that year. Placed a perfect shot on him and put him on the wall. On our 3000 acres, we had not a single pic or sighting of him all year. One of my most proudest trophys.

Last year, well kinda. Shot this deer and checked cameras later that weekend. Had 3 pics of him the day before about 200 yards from where I shot him

Never saw this one on any camera, until he was chasing a doe. MF10 was 2 extra points on G4.

I truly believe there are some bucks that get to a certain age and eliminate going to feeders. We have plenty that just seem to show up out of nowhere. Usually near the end of the season. My avatar buck I only had two pictures of him from the previous year. I killed him on the 29th of December and had zero pictures of him for that year. That is why you can never get too disappointed based just what is on the camera.

Every year during rut we see deer from the blind or get pics around Thanksgiving that we've never seen before. That right there is a big reason why I love our 350 acres of low fence.

It is reassuring to read these stories - if a real shooter buck gets killed this year on our place it will be one we have never seen before. There is always hope during the rut!

I hope to add to this thread tomorrow!

I run several cams on national forest. Out of all the mature deer I've ever killed I only had one on camera. Thats the most exciting part to me. You never know what will come through.
