I'm born in Emo, Ontario and some of the best whitetail deer hunting is around the old homesteads of my grandparents as they're gone back to browse. Even Michigan hunters come up the NW Ontario to hunt trophy whitetail. I'm now near Radium Hot Springs, bC and the mule deer here you can pick up by the scruff of their necks, they're so small. No meat on them at all.

[@padgetd8517]

The obsession with that one tree branch...

[@JustinHoffman]

That is called a 'licking branch.' During the fall rut, a whitetail deer will seek out a low hanging branch to create a scrape underneath. A scrape is digging up the earth with the two front hooves, and then urinating in it to leave his scent. Directly above this scrape he will 'chew' on the licking branch as well as rub his forehead on it - leaving his scent behind. Bucks will visit the same scrape and licking branch regularly to freshen it up, detect if a doe has visited, and leave his scent behind again. There's a method to his madness, lol!

The only animal that I know that receives nutritional density from antlers are the squirrels that savor them after they fall off. That being said, these deer would dress-out at the same weight that deer in my area would weigh in at. It's all about what's in the freezer, the wall decorations are secondary until it's full.

Justin Hoffman This past season I had big bucks walking around between 10 in the morning and 2 in the afternoon since the velvet. Usually when the road starts I go into the woods at eight in the morning and hunt the whole day and most of my box over the years during the rut have come mid day

[@JustinHoffman]

@@stevedowney4056 I agree, Steve. Being a wildlife photographer, I spend a tonne of time in the woods during the fall photographing bucks. All hours of the day I come across bucks, especially when the rut is in full swing, working their areas, chasing does, and moving constantly. The rut definitely gets the daytime clock going for sure. Thanks for watching!

[@stevedowney4056]

Justin Hoffman I’m 48 years old and hunting my whole life. I had an eight pointer this year while gun hunting 8 feet away. Decent buck for where I hunt pretty heavy mass, was going to let them walk by. Until he stopped turned his head and realized he messed up. All the hair on his body stood straight up he started pawing the ground like a bull. At 8 feet away when he snort wheeze at me I thought he was coming for me and I pulled the trigger. Ended up finding him in the morning because of all the commotion I forgot to aim low ( shotgun sited in at 50 yds )and I hit him high in the lungs. Ended up losing the hunting spot over it because the caretaker at the place said it was the biggest buck he ever saw up there and he was pissed that I got it now I’m not allowed in. I had to sneak in a week ago to go get my trail cameras. If he thinks the one I shot is one of the biggest bucks up there he has no clue what’s running around mid day up there. One camera over a scrape I have 16 different bucks and four really nice ones ( a lot bigger than the one I got )on camera. I don’t know why everything is running so late this year two weeks ago I had pictures of two bucks fighting in front of the camera and most every buck that comes in right now works for scrape still into February

Glad you enjoyed the footage, Wayne. I have a variety of different locations where my trail cams are set up, but all are in the west end.

The notch missing from his right ear was an easy giveaway when he would show up each season. Sadly, the footage you watched is the last I have of him. He never returned after that. This is public land but off-limits to hunting. It is bordered by busy roads, so my guess is he was hit or simply died of old age. He was up there in years for sure.

@@JustinHoffman yeah, that's key. be strategic about cam placement, that's what I do. it's very rare that I ever see any people on my cams.

[@danielwade2003]

What kind of camera are you using

[@JustinHoffman]

These are all older videos - back then it was a Stealth Cam Black Ops (now discontinued,) I am currently running about 9 different cams. In any of my current videos, I always list the make and model in the description. Thanks for watching!

[@warrenthomas4687]

Any of those brutes make it to your wall?

[@JustinHoffman]

I'm afraid not. This is public land but protected, so off limits to hunting. I do well shed hunting though, so have some of these racks in the collection.

[@Arks1969]

What gb sd card are you using?

[@JustinHoffman]

I use 16GB cards in all of my cams.

[@wanderdworld]

Barbed wire should have been named the " Neck"

[@JustinHoffman]

I agree! You should see some of the photographs I have of him - biggest neck I have ever seen!

[@skiprocker5751]

I would like to see a little montage on Mr Neck. That puts our deer to shame in SC. He looks north of 225 lbs.

[@glennl9630]

What Zoo was this in??

[@JustinHoffman]

Haha! This is public land (greenbelt) within the city limits of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Protected land that is off-limits to hunting.

[@blakenator088]

9:34 rumor has it the guillotine had to get a heavier blade

[@JustinHoffman]

Haha! For all of the years I have spent both photographing and using trail cams for whitetail, I have yet to see a buck with a neck the size of this brute! What a beast. And a week after those photos were taken, he somehow freed himself from the barbed wire. I have no idea how, but he did. Go figure. Thanks for watching...

[@bootyhuntersxc]

I think that deer is going downhill at 7:11 what do you guys think?

[@JustinHoffman]

I nicknamed that guy Old Buck. That clip is the last I captured of him - he never showed up after that. I had both photographed and trail cammed him the previous two years. He was quite the character. I'm guessing old age got him, or a vehicle collision or coyotes. (This spot is off-limits to hunting.)

[@bootyhuntersxc]

Justin Hoffman right on man, I love the vids. I should throw a camera up in my local state park where you can’t hunt

[@JustinHoffman]

I definitely recommend it! Such a fun hobby. The best part is never knowing what you may have captured until you go and pull that memory card. Good luck!

[@rennierad]

6:27 this old boy looks completely wore out.

[@JustinHoffman]

That is the last footage I ever captured of him. This is public land that is off-limits to hunting, but is bordered by busy roads. My guess is he died of old age or was hit by a car. But who knows...I did have him on the cams for three years in a row prior to that.

[@rennierad]

@@JustinHoffman I don't think most people realize how hard it is for deer to survive. We live in a village that is off limits to hunting but there are times you will hear gun shots not to far in the distance which is unsettling. Believe it or not the deer are smart enough to know this and stay with in the village limits. This past spring we had an old girl I have filmed for yrs. got injured over the winter (leg injury) she left her baby here and I never captured her on my camera again. Her baby is full grown now and still comes here.

[@unrulyjulie4382]

When I saw him, my immediate thought was, "He looks like I feel". Poor guy!

[@mikebaker1044]

I have shot my last 2 bucks bow hunting mid day

[@JustinHoffman]

These clips definitely show that once the rut is on, they will be moving throughout the daytime for sure!

[@craigarnold323]

I'm sure this is public and right?

[@JustinHoffman]

It is, Craig. Public land but that is off-limits to hunting.

[@craigarnold323]

It is a great video of the majesty of the whitetail deer.

[@JustinHoffman]

Cheers, Craig - appreciate the kind comment.

[@sabinaolivares1155]

It's my 14 points?

[@JustinHoffman]

Fingers crossed he shows up again next month. The cams are ready! :)

[@eslcity]

I can't figure out which looks more delicious .

[@JustinHoffman]

more than a few to choose from ;)

[@user-KrackerJack]

How could you look at something so beautiful and want to kill it

[@JustinHoffman]

All of these animals are on protected land that is off limits to hunting.

[@user-KrackerJack]

@@JustinHoffman That's cool 😎 great footage Justin
