Anyone else having problems getting deer?

We hunt a little over 100 wooded acres in southern Ohio. No fields or open land just woods. We have had our cameras out for a little over a month on our feeders and not getting any activity. Can't figure out why. It's Southeastern Ohio so I know there are an abundance of big deer. Just wondering if anyone else is having the same problems. We're thinking there is just enough food in the fields to keep them out of the woods. Any thoughts?? I'm definitely getting pissed.

if the crops are still out then the traffic will be a little slow. if your feeders are not on thier normal summer feeding patterns it will take a little while for them to realize the feed is there.
but dont worry your in ohio they will show.

Are you going by the fact that there isn't any pictures or that there hasnt been any food eaten. If the food is being eaten then could be something wrong with the camera.

Try putting out some buckjam or acorn rage right in front of the camera. I have never not had that stuff get tore up within 24 hrs..

We'll have to try it. The corn isn't even eaten. I feel like we need something with a strong odor to attract them to the feeder. Then I think we may be good. But I can't believe we aren't getting anything.

there is no reason why you should have many in your woods. Try putting corn, cmere deer, or acorn rage in front of your trail cam. Right now, especially in ohio, they are going to the corn and soybeans. Winter will be yours

I always dump out a jug of apple flavored Buck Jam when i setup my feeder. I have setup the feeder without an attractant before and it took much longer for the deer to find it.

I agree, cant go wrong with buck jam or other products. If you ever put up a feeder its always wise to through some attractant out to get them coming. Unless you have soybeans as your attractant
