These two younger bucks show a lot of potential. if they don't get killed this year, they could be really special next year. The first one - the 2 1/2 year-old 10-point - could be a dandy at 3 1/2. The second one with the crazy rack - and I'm still debating whether he's a larger bodied 2 1/2 or an under-sized 3 1/2 - IF he keeps his crazy rack could be a real doozey next year.

That second one reminds me of a buck I had on cam a couple of years ago as a 4 year old.

BSK,
How are you liking the Gardepro as season progresses?:

Numerous things a like - no, make that LOVE - about the GardePros. Incredible image quality on video (I have mine set to record at 1440). Microphone for video is crazy sensitive. I like and use the side-sensor PIRs. However, I found out I really need to set the false trigger suppression at "Low." I was missing some events with it set on "Medium." Only problem I've had - and it's not a terrible problem - is with the SD Cards. The cameras work fine with 128 GB SanDisk cards, but every time you put a card in the camera - if it has any data on it - it says it cannot recognize the card. Go to the settings and format the card and no more problems. It works fine in the camera. However, when I put the card in my Windows 11 PC, it says the card has been damaged and needs to be repaired. Click on the "Repair drive" option, and it runs fine. Only thing that will be missing from the repaired SD Card is the last video collected - me driving up on my ATV to change cards.
 
We don't see many 2 1/2 year-old 10-pointers. The few times we have, and they made it to 3 1/2, they had become real dandies. We had one in 2022 that probably would have scored around 115. In 2023, at 3 1/2, he grossed 131. Now TheLBLman is going to jump in here and say, "But think of what he would have scored at 4 1/2!" True enough. But I have an itchy trigger finger!

I have one of the Gardpros and 3 of the Madease cameras and they have performed much much better than the other brands I have tried. I Will have a full fleet of them by next fall. These two brands certainly appear to be made by the same company, they share identical housings and features.
