Yep. If you want to see the inventory of your bucks, August is definitely the month to see them. Even mature bucks are out well before Dark. Usually once they shed the velvet then they seem to disappear.

Nice. Some do get stupid though and end up on walls.

The past few years there has been a "buckaganza" going on down the road from camp, over the July Fourth holiday period.
I had never seen that many bucks, including some real wall hangers, gathered in the same place in my lifetime, before these past few summers. They come out into fields along a creek bottom, that have been regularly chopped for cow chow, so the eating is pretty good there in July thru August.
When I've been at camp, the buggers don't usually come out until it's almost too dark for any good camera action, but no problem getting a good look with the binocs. Good to know they're around. Wouldn't mind seeing them more frequently, come a deer season, although I did see two last rifle season? One was on the weekend before the rifle season opened (a neighbor got it on Monday), saw the other one late on the second day, too far to shoot at.
Only other place I'd seen some numbers of nice bucks before, is in the next valley over from camp and that was usually while spotting. Can't do that now, since the corn is next to the road and the deer can't easily be seen in the hay fields, which are between the corn and the woods. That's how the landowner wanted things and the farmer who works that land, abides by his wishes.
