These pics are off of public land near my house. But first a little info on the piece of land. I know people who have hunted it in past years and would see deer every night. But since 2000 the deer population in my county has been going to ****. I hunted it several times and never saw a deer. A friend of mine hunted it last year at least once a week and didnt see a single deer and only two tracks. I got a trail cam and set it out there to see what was going on. The first week all there was were does but this week I got some pics of nice bucks. They may not be what most people think of as big for Iowa, but in my part of the state they are. I had it out for three days and got 30pics. All I can say is I know where I hunting this year. Sorry for the long story but here are the pics.
P.S. The A.M and P.M. on the pics are switched around.

An 8pt, may be growing a 9th pt long brows
