Deer season is open 365 days a year… with a camera. If you are like most archers, you enjoy the anticipation and preparation of the off-season ALMOST as much as a cold October morning on stand. Perhaps you have mineral sites in operation and do your best to enhance deer nutrition, plant a food plot with pricy seeds that benefit wildlife year-round, or keep all of your trail cameras in place so that you know what’s happening in your favorite deer locations.
Monitoring Predators
A newly created mineral site is getting daily attention in front of my Stealth Cam Revolver 360. Unfortunately, I have seen four bears and a bobcat in the same area during the past two weeks, which is a very concerning situation. Pennsylvania Game Commission research has shown black bears to be significant predators of fawns, and a mature bobcat can easily take down a fawn during its first few months of development.
Revolver 360
I posted this Stealth Cam camera for the first time last year and am very pleased with the results. Often, animals pass to the left or right of my main camera focus, and the lenses’ 360-degree nature ensures no animals are missed. Since I attached the camera to a tree, it captures a 180-degree area, yet this still triples the number of images of a standard camera. The following article lists six reasons to keep your camera clicking during the summer and is very well written.
