Iowabow, I was using my Nikon 180 2.8 lens. ISO 800 Aperture priority at 5.6 Most of the time I use my Nikon 50 1.4 lens, but didn't have it that day. A really good lens makes a big difference over a camera. the 180 is a good lens to use when the deer arent really close to the blind yet.They...

This guy posed for a few pictures then left, only to return later to harass my does. Every time one of the does were moving into range for a shot, I would hear grunting and here he came.

2 years ago I took some pictures of a nontyp I called "14 point" in the field I hunt. he came up by the blind twice. the first time I spooked him because I hit the camera strap on the camera case when he was 15 yds from the blind. Yea, I know, I should of had the bow in my hand instead...

the first day of the bowseason was the first time I saw this buck. he was south of the blind close to the same spot as he is here from the picture taken 10-8 we usually go out before the season and run the lift up about half way so the deer get used to seeing it up. well, we didn't do it...

Thanks for your replies guys. I have a semi pro camera on the way and am thinking about a super sharp pro lens. The Nikon 200 f2 the lens I am using now is the Nikon 180 2.8, nice and sharp. the Body is the Nikon D50. only 6 mp but does a good job, the camera I bought is the D300 12 MP. On...

Friday evening Mike and his daughter came to my place for the weekends Youth Turkey hunt. we watched the weather and it didn't look good for the weather Saturday. rain, snow and 25-35 mph winds. 4:45 the alarm went off and they headed out, I rolled over and went back to sleep. At 7:30 Mike...

A few months ago Rick brought over a shed from this deer that he found a few years ago. The base was hollow and was around 8" circumference. This rack was really light so I am guessing that the bases were hollow also. this last year was the first time I ever saw this deer, but Jon thinks he...

here is a picture of him on June 16. Jon and I were heading over to the lift blind when he got up. Jon called him 3 point and that name stuck. October at the blind looking at 3 point makes me wonder this ? is it a buck. still in velvet,and no swollen neck like every other buck I have seen...

After the flu and ice storms have passed I finally made it out for some pictures. with the Nikon 180 2.8 on the way back home. The shutter speed was 1/15. to bad it wasn't an hr earlier with more light.

2 years ago Rick came into the blind to videotape. I had a half rack 8 come by. as I was about to hit anchor my friend leaned forward and his knee hit the floor. the deer turned inside out getting out of there. Rick looked at me and said "OOPS !!!" All I could do was laugh. After thinking...

Jon and I took a ride out to the lift blind to see if anything was moving around there. Nothing has been around the blind since the snow. across from the 215 And a picture from tonight
