How do you know it just didn't avoid the camera? I've watched deer walk behind the tree with the camera mounted on it, so if I hadn't been there, I'd have never known the buck was even in the area. Lesson: cameras are good, but never tell the entire story.
edit: Others beat me to the punch (lesson to me...read entire thread before responding! LOL)
Great advice, everyone. Pretty much what I figured (ie. just sit tight) but it's still good getting feedback from other hunters, for reassurance if nothing else.

Stay put is exectly right. Its frustrating and you are angry and throw many ideas into your head but the bottom line is that you NEVER know whats going to happen.. whether he altered your hunt or not you may never know.. but its good to just stay put and take what comes. As someone mentioned earlier, just enjoy your night out and keep your head up. "**** happens"
