Show D&DH Your Best Trail Cam Photos
Posted by DDH Staff
A mini-competition on the forum seeks your best trail cam pics of 2009. Click here to check it out and submit yours.
For starters, Managing Editor Jacob Edson submitted these two finds. Now let's see yours.
Speaking of D&DH's managing editor, Edson snapped these photos (above) in the chicory he and others planted earlier this year. The chicory's success has been overwhelming, nearly choking out the clover planted alongside it.
All that hard work is paying off. With any luck, this buck isn't just passing through.

Video: Two Fighting Does
Posted by DDH Staff
Loyal Deer & Deer Hunting reader Wallace M., of southeast Pennsylvania, shot this footage of two does fighting. Apparently, this is not an uncommon sight for Wallace. He's right in the middle of a deer hotspot
Writes Wallace, "I have been taking video of deer in the same square mile since 1987. I live on a 17-acre spread with wooded hills and grown up fields, all next to corn, alfalfa, soy beans and the like. I see deer all the time."
If you've got interesting deer footage, send an e-mail to Ben Sobieck, online editor, at ben.sobieck@fwmedia.com.

Food Plot Update: Chicory Explodes
Posted by DDH Staff
by Jacob Edson, managing editor
After planting our late season food plot with a Frigid Forage brassica mix last week, I'm getting extremely excited for the season.
We have stands hung on that plot and the large destination plots we planted earlier this spring. While the fall plot is just starting to sprout, those early plots are doing really well -- especially the chicory in the mix!
And the deer are hitting the chicory pretty hard right now. So far we've done one mowing to keep the weeds back, but now the deer are taking over that chore.
According to Whitetail Institute, a chicory and clover mix can be great for areas that experience high summer heat and summer drought, which can slow clover production.
While we haven't had the heat this summer, at one point we were nearly 6 inches below average on rainfall. This is one reason it's wise to use a seed blend. You never know what weather the coming year holds.

Food Plot Update: Perfect Timing?
Posted by DDH Staff
by Jacob Edson, D&DH managing editor
Wow. My timing is never this great. Last night, my hunting partners and I
planted our late season hunting plot with Frigid Forage Big-N-Beasty
Brassica mix. It started raining at midnight and hasn't stopped for the past
14 hours.
According to Frigid Forage's John Barsody, precipitation is even more
important than timing in late-season plot success.
If rain is in the forecast, even if you have to push your time-table up a
week or two, get that seed in the ground.

Photo: N.C. Bachelor Group
Posted by DDH Staff
Reader Jason H. sent in this photo of a bachelor group from North Carolina. Here's what he had to say about the shot:
It was taken by a trail camera in North Carolina on one of my hunting properties this summer. I recognize most of the bucks from last year with a few new faces. Needless to say they will all get to walk this year.

Bachelor Group Invokes Thoughts of Opening Day
Posted by DDH Staff
This photo of a bachelor group was taken somewhere in central Wisconsin. According to confidential sources, the photographer spotted the group from the road, drove down a neighbor's driveway, got out of the car and shot the photo. The group was very cooperative in front of the camera.
But will they remain so approachable when opening day begins?

Photo: Buck Scores 450
Posted by DDH Staff
Check out the head gear. Now that's a crown.
They figure he'll only end up scoring around 450-470. Won't make 500", but still will beat 436 which is Rolex, the current biggest deer in the world. Poor deer.

Exciting Trail Cam Footage

Jared Blohm, F&W Media outdoors editor, captured these photographs from a trail cam on his food plot. Wonder where he'll be sitting this fall?

Ghost Deer Caught on Camera?
Posted by DDH Staff
Things mysterious are haunting the farm fields near Independence, Iowa. Some say they are the deer of Harvests Past back to inflict the kind of terror only an ungulate can dish. Others say the supernatural beings aren't so much super as natural, albeit rare. Albino deer, they say, are hardly ghosts.
All we have as evidence is this fuzzy photograph taken by Kade H., a loyal Deer & Deer Hunting subscriber and haphazard cryptozoologist. See for yourself.

Two Promising Bucks
Posted by DDH Staff
by Jacob Edson, managing editor
Check out these two deer that my cousin photographed in her back yard. Talk about potential. Sadly, these boys live in town and I’ll never get a chance at them. Hopefully she can keep tabs on them the next few years. I can’t wait to see how they age.
