Deer are not all the same and they have their own personalities and traits. Studies have shown that. We all search for the combination to unlock the secret while continually trying to outguess the variables. I just seen a video on a buck that traveled 3 miles quite regularly. Going across numerous properties past a score of hunters and landowners. All of the places between and at each end had photos of that buck. He'd weave his way under the cloak of darkness and in mid-day sun thru thickets and terrain, foiling all those along the way. Meanwhile an equivalent buck stays tail tucked on a quarter acre, content with breeding just a couple of local does. Curiosity killed the cat and greed gets a lot of bucks killed.  Cameras let you know what's there, at least in front of the camera. If you have a large property or numerous properties, cameras will increase your odds. For me, I only have a couple of small parcels to hunt so it comes down to timing. I go when I can - when conditions are favorable. Sometimes, more so in the past, the photos have made me greedy. Then I'd make the mistake by going at a less favorable time, not even knowing I boogered it up.</p></blockquote><p></p>
