look im not going to say anything about your shooting because i missed a huge deer this year as well ugh for scouting if you see alot of rubs then you know you have some bucks it just determins the size of the rub but i wouldent pute a camera on the rubs just for the fact that most deer just do not rub the same tree twice and if you have some scrapes then that might be a good spot to pute a camera althow i have had no luck with that others have though. We pute cameras over are feeders in the post season to determin what kind of deer we have and where they are coming from. Plus the feeders in the winter can draw alot of deer on your property who are in need of alot of food. You just need to hunt to i mean i hunted about 100 times this year and only shot one doe althow i did pass of a couple and missed a nice buck and since we have the antler restriction i had to pass on alot of small bucks it just takes time so dont get to beat up and i hope i gave you some info you can use and her is just a picture of one of our cameras over the offseason it sure dose draw alot of deer.
