Default RE: Problem with nocturnal deer

ORIGINAL: ozfest5

This is my first year deer hunting. I got a bow for christmas and we built a tree stand in my backyard. The problem is, I never see the deer during the day. I know there are plenty of deer back there because I feed them corn and I have to throw out another 50lb bag every few days. Also, every time I come home at about 11pm I flash my headlights back there and theres always a pack of deer hanging out.

I have yet to try hunting in the morning, but I never see them in the morning anyways. What should I do to get one of these deer out during the day?
if your hunting over bait IMO your best bet is too hunt evenings.all the deer i have seen by bait have been in the evenings this time of the year. have another spot on trails on near bedding area for a morning stand. another thing i saw at bass pro was called nocturnal nightmare
here it is looks pretty cool
