    Are the glory days of deer hunting coming to a close?

    They still have it but have limited it to a certain number of tags(res). There are some of those type of tags available for non-res as well.

    Small Watering Hole

    Thanks, no problem, I just was trying to promote what's possible with water holes. On a sit Monday, I got to see 4 of the bucks that we believe are 4 and will be on the green light list next year, all go to the same water hole and drink.

    Small Watering Hole

    Catscratch, the deer will keep it open I bet. It might just be a corner but they'll drink it down to the bottom as the edges will slowly melt and slide down. I dug a foot by 4' hole under the tanks to help keep them open. I know it hasn't kept them ice free but I'd like to think it kept them...

    Cuddelink L series Q & A

    Did anybody else get a message delivered to them in their normal photo delivery that said there was a new cudde firmware 3.3 out and to get it for your cams. Sounds like they were selling it. I have the most current firmware they have out and my system was working flawlessly since Sept. Now it...

    Cuddelink L series Q & A

    I wish I had gone solar years ago. I recommend bit the bullet and go solar. It will pay in long run financially and short term as it will keep one out of the habitat, and stinking up an area.
