Lost several that have quit showing since right before the season. I put some handcorn out on a road i feed pretty consistantly when out there and placed a camera. Both the PM right before dark and the next morning for 2 hrs there were 12 doe and fawns on a 50yd stretch of handcorn. More activity than at any of our feeders(no bucks tho). Looks like the next trip will prob be spent in brush blinds on hand corn. Hopefully a really good cold front will drop in the next couple weeks and get them going. I have started seeing some single fawns and on pics the older bucks are starting to sniff does in the feeder pens.

Don't be puzzled, it happens. The 3 main bucks we watched all last year (Fisher County to your north) were seen daily this year up till they were ready to shed, at that point all bucks disappeared from cameras for 3-4 weeks. They are all starting to show up again but not regular yet.
East Texas boys call it a "walk about" I think it is the disturbance of pattern when the bachelor groups bust up.

Over in blackwell been pretty slow as well. Had a nice 8 and a nice 10 coming in daily even during the day very often before the season and really have not seen them much since and no new bucks either only these suckers. Busted a couple of doe out of there and we got them same blind same time a "1,2,3 shoot" kind of deal pretty fun honestly
