Anyone else having a "bad camera" year?
I can't seem to get a picture of a critter I'm looking for on my trail cams. I've seen a few bruisers while scouting and glassing fields, but they are evading my camera setups. I've also got some nice footage on the camcorder. I'm just hoping they are camera shy and don't want their picture taken. Anyone else disappointed in their pictures so far?

I'm sort of depressed about my camera situation too... Makes me second guess my stand locations... Not sure what to do. In and out of panic mode. I'll be going out for a good while tomorrow to hang 1 final stand and then I'll leave it alone till opening day. I hope I have better results on my cam this week!

Are your cameras on trails or are they on mineral sites/corn piles?
I used deer cane this year with some corn early on and got good pics ( to see whats around), but now I have the cameras on certain trails I'm trying to scout. Only one good buck this year and a bunch of little guys so far

I got lots of bucks on the trail cameras but not the huge one I have been glassing from about 600 yards. He is the one I hope to cross paths with this fall. I don't see how he gets from one spot to another without getting a pic but he does it over and over.
