That sucks but keep at it. One suggestion though, you may want to think about not checking the camera every day, by going in there that often, you are spreading alot of scent and that could be scaring off the deer as well.
The dogs will scare off more deer than a scent will , especially if the scent is one that they recognize as common . As long as the scent isn't associated with danger they'll ignore it . Farmers leave scent all over their properties constantly , yet they provide some of the best deer hunting to be had . I walk and ride the ATV trails at my home all the time , and there's no shortage of deer tracks on them . I do this intentionally so that I can get into my stand without worrying as much about the wind , and it works .
