I enjoy looking at old photographs of deer camps. It seems like hunting trips back in those days were always very successful. Came across this one today that one of my high school coaches posted on facebook. He said it was taken in the Davis Mountains in the mid 1950's. Looks to me like mainly mule deer with one being a whitetail. Thought you might enjoy. Post up old pics if you got'em.

And he probably had that cigarette in his mouth as he sat on a 2X4 nailed in the fork of a tree and shot that buck.Originally posted by wtc3 View PostThat's a great photo!!

Lol. Scent control wasn't a priority I assume.Originally posted by CWKATTNER View Post
From what I was told, he was sitting on the tailgate of that old truck taking a break from chopping firewood when he saw the buck running a doe. Whistled real loud to stop him and the rest is history!!! LolComment
