Well, seeing as how no one else is going to reply, here's my two cents. You guys are definately doing the right thing by killing more does than bucks. It will however take time to see a noticeable improvement in the overall health of your bucks. Dont let anyone talk you out of it. My saying is that the more does you kill, the better the whitetail gods will reward you for your efforts when it comes to a big trophy buck. As far as the nocturnal problem you are having with your bucks, the only advice I can give you is to try and find their bedding area and hunt closer to it. If they are only feeding at night and dissapearing before first light, you will have to catch them either leaving or returning to their beds. On the feeder problem, you may want to "hide" your feeder from all of your hunters. Deer aint as smart as alot of folks think, but they can figure out that one of them barrels means that somebody is most likely watching them, with intent to do them harm. Find the most nasty, grown up spot on your land, and put your feeder there. Dont tell anyone where it is. Dont even go there yourself any more than you absolutely have to. If you have a trail camera, after the deer start using your feeder, put a camera near it so you can see the deer you are trying to kill. If you dont see any deer that meet the antler limits you have set, you may want to reconsider your point limitations. Just my opinions....
