Hang in there! I"m in the same position as you. Not being able to budget in a trail camera until next year, I can't figure out when the deer are crossing my land. I know they are -- there is fresh sign and tracks, but I have no idea when. It sure seems that it's not in the morning or night!

They'll come. Just be patient and try to figure out the good times to hunt that stand!

well no luck tonight, I tried a new stand and still nothing moving. Hopefully the upcoming rut will move them around.

Hang in there.....I know just how you feel. Here in Ohio the weather has been way tooo warm for this time of year. I think that is why the deer are not moving during daylight hours. However, it looks like next week the temps are dropping. That should get the deer moving, which is perfect for the rut to start!!!

I've checked the moon tables and I am going out at the right time. I might have an answer though now. I have the scent blocker suit but i never reactivated it since last year so my scent may have been scraring them away. I'm going out tommorrow night so well see what happens now with my scent suit reactivated and the colder temps and the rut. Sounds like a good combo to me. Can't wait to get out. I'll keep you all informed.
