If you have does in the backyard what's the problem? I have does in my backyard too. Although my backyard is 60 acres but that's beside the point. If you're calling does into your backyard you should be putting meat in your freezer. Now if you're just trophy hunting, that's different. Could be there are no mature bucks in that area. But if there are does there, there will be bucks. This time of year start looking for their feeding areas. Cornfields, alphalfa fields, oak trees, soybean fields, whatever is around for them to graze. The does are concerned with fattening up for winter. The bucks are too and still looking for the odd doe that didn't get bred during the rut. Using the doe bleat call and doe esterus scent should bring in mature bucks within 100 yards of you right to you provided they don't see you or wind you. Don't get discouraged. I've hunted for 2 years with a bow and still haven't gotten one. Because of equipment, not tactics. Good luck. Hope this helps.
