Default Question about pre season bucks.

About a month before the season started in September I put my trail cam out. For the next month and a half, I was getting some awesome pics of several different bucks. Granted most of them were night time pics, but they were still there.
Move forward to just about 2 months in the season, and I have yet to see any of them while on stand. Our gun season started this past Saturday, aand I have been hunting hard, but not all day sits, I hunt about 3 hours in the morning and 3 hours in the evening, just about every day. Tonight was the 9th sit without seeing 1 deer. Now this is suppose toi be our rut here in Minnesota, and they should be chasing hard.
Some of the problems in the last 9 days, are 70 degree temps, (I think the average is 30's and 40's for around here), that and there is still way too much corn in.

I guesse my question is, do you think those bucks that I got on film in September and October will show back up when the temps get colder, and the corn is all out? We have a 3 week ML season that starts the Saturday after Thanksgiving, and I am wondering if I will have any bucks around to hunt.
