Cell cams helped our club a good bit. It allowed us to decide ahead of time which bucks we were mature and which ones were not. They helped us let a good bit of 3 year olds walk. Also helped us kill a few mature bucks by patterning them. Used correctly I think they can be a useful tool to change the age structure of the deer herd. Plus it’s just as fun as shooting one to me. Or pretty close to it anyways.
