Default RE: Decrease In Trail Cam Photos?

Yes last year using 4 cams. The in and out of checking these things I feel put the deer on alarm. Its kind of like the first time you use a stand is the best time after
that sightings also go down. This year I put a cam out in June left it for 2 weeks and yanked it. I wont use one now until this fall during the
season for some scouting help.
ORIGINAL: AF Hunter

Anyone else seeing a decrease in activity on their trail cams? I checked mine and deer traffic on my property has dropped off to next to nothing. My neighbor, a farmer, told me that the number of deer bedding in his corn fields since the corn has begun to ripen is outrageous. He said he is thinkingof going and getting some nuisance tags to thin them out. I told him if he needs help, I would force myself to make time to help him.

Anyway, anyone else experiencing this?
