Default RE: Question about Mature bucks and game cam pics

I'll let you know when I get one.

I bought mine late last summer and the first few months were mainly trial and error. Once I got everything down good I got much better pics and filled the cam faster. I got my best results using mineral blocks and corn once the ground was covered in snow. However , I still dont have the mature bucks on film , I know their there , my father in law watches them in his back yard , but they seem to be camera shy.
The closest (I think) I came to getting one of the mature bucks was this winter. I have a pic with an 8pt who is being chased away from the bait pile by something that was approaching from behind the cam.
Maybe I'll have better luck this summer of getting a mature buck? One thing I'll try different is trying to eliminate my scent when putting out my cam. I haven't done that yet and it's probably the biggest reason I dont have the mature buck pic yet.[&:]
