Default Should I hunt this stand in the evening? I think not...

I have a computer program that automatically graphs all my trail cam pictures...I just pulled my card from the past two weeks and not a single picture from about 10am to 6:30pm. Since 6:30 is WELL after dark, I don't think I'll be hunting there in the evenings anytime soon.

Here's the graph

You might have trouble, however, getting to your stand in the morning without bumping them out.

Thanks for posting that graph. I went back to my excel spreadsheet and reworked it a little to get a similar style graph from my data.

Here's a current graph of when animals are visitingmy camera. Each visit only counts once even if they get their picture taken multiple times.



For some reason the graph decided to show the male deer in pink and the female deer in blue. I hope they don't start getting a complex!

Npaden, thats pretty cool, the program I use just counts all photos no matter if it is the same deer or not. I guess it is a measure of overall activity and not a specific deer's activity. I don't think the bucks will mind you coloring them pink, but it is interesting that you have more buck activity than does, AND only at morning and evening, not really in the middle of the night.
