Man those deer are really in great body shape. Still got a lot of growing to go also. Nice bucks.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

If those feeders do hold 2000# then you are feeding 8,000 per month and 275# per day more or less. That is a lot of deer. Somewhere in the range of 125-150 deer if you have good habitat.

Is the place hi-fence or low fence? Last year when it was so dry the deer on our place would eat the feed dry in a week or so. We did our population counts and it showed and average of around a deer per 2 acres, we were drawing in alot of deer from the neighboring properties!
Just curiouse, but we feed on 330 acres and dont go through near that much feed in a typical year. Looks like alot of feed on the ground, may need to restrict the flow a little to stop some over flow?

Nice bucks, set a few of those duke dog proof coon traps out and your feed will last a bit longer.

Coon traps are actually on the way, yes mix a little corn with protein, and it is low fence! Lake owns about 500 unhunted acres that borders her place

Suppose to be unhunted, the game warden catches people over there all the time, probably his favorite hang out in our county!

It has probably taken 1200 pics and been on since May and still have not changed batteries. The only thing bad about them is they dont take pics from very far away at night (they get blurry) day time all pics are great.
