I leave them both go right through the rut. Use it to learn. You won't believe the change after about Oct 22. You will just start seeing bucks that have never shown up on your cam. You will also see a much bigger percentage of buck photos. I keep it out but put it odd places or places I don't have stands.......I scout with it. I have hunted with it near my stand and seen numerous deer get their picture taken(yes with flash) and have never seen them run away from it.

Good Luck!
