Default nocturnal deer

This year has been very frustrating for me. I get a ton of trail cam photos @ night but very little sightings in daylight. Areas that in the past provided lots of sightings are coming up dry. Anyone else having this problem or have any thoughts on what to do? It doesn't seem to matter what the moon phase is they are almost always moving at night & these are light hunted rural areas.

hunt between 11 and 2 those bucks will move mid day or the last 5 min of light you could also set up on their bedding area and get them coming back in the morning

Give them time and cold weather and they will come out. It is suppose to get cold next week that may make them come out to play.

The deer are not showing up on trail cameras except @ night. I was getting a few daylight hits but that has stopped. All year it has been this way and it areas where that typically wasn't a problem. I am beginning to think it is time for some night vision googles.
