Man i've been reading this for a few weeks now and I feel your pain. I have had a similar story for many years now. Working so hard in the off season only to have it ruined by hogs, poachers, mother nature, or what ever else. I haven't shot a buck in 4 years and that was in the late season with a rifle when I had given up on the bow. This year we got a new place thats "at the end of the road" so I am a lot more hopeful but wont get to hunt until the week of thanksgiving. Anyway just know you are not alone. I'm pulling for you man and I hope you can get it done. I'm sure it will be extremely rewarding when you do.

i really appreciate it, i have had cameras scattered around on scrapes, trails, corn, fence crossings, etc., and not only has he disappeared, all of the good bucks i was seeing have. they all run off somewhere and hide out and i have been doing what i can to find them, it just hasnt happened yet.
my food plot is looking great, maybe it will draw them back in after the rut and i will get my shot.
thanks again and good luck to you

Hang in there. It is slow for everybody as most places have greened up with good ole natural groceries and it is still fairly warm. A few good hard frosts on the ground will send the deer looking for better stuff to eat, ie, your food plot and corn. It is going to be great when you finally see and get this buck regardless of means.

My advice would be don't give up on the late season. They may run off for a while, but when things get cold and food gets scarce, those food plots are going to look like a Christmas ham to those deer. Last year I got the most bucks on camera October 31st, and second most in early January when it was snowing.

lol, i know, the only thing that makes sense is too much pressure, but the buck was gone before the season even started and the hunting pressure began.

i havent been able to make it out there this week, sunday will be my first chance. i did get permission to a good sized place to my west a bit and am going to get a camera up over there sunday as well. the place looks good and is a potential hideout for the buck, we'll see! the camera i got up on the place to the east hasnt turned up anything so maybe he heads west come colder weather...
