I'm curious. Did you ever get a daytime picture or see him in shooting light?

I have a couple that I would not know existed except for night pictures...and I mean nothing even close to shooting light.
Not to hijack this thread, but many years ago this is EXACTLY why I quit running cameras. I had several buddies who hunted giants they had on camera and passed really nice bucks to hunt the "ghost". These ghosts all had one thing in common...........never a daytime picture !! I decided I'd go back to hunting for a buck that got me excited with bow in hand, versus one on camera that may never show himself during legal shooting hours !

You can't get there from here.

It can be frustrating but I enjoy it. I don't NEED to shoot a buck for meat. Plenty of does around.
If I do get tired of waiting on the vampires, I'm not above slinging an arrow at a decent buck in late season if I get excited.

To me, I enjoy walking the woods and seeing if I can find the right spot for cameras. It's not as easy as one may think. You have to conceal it, find a cell signal, make sure the vegetation isn't going to constantly trigger it, then(Most of all) make sure the deer are going to walk by.
I've placed a few that never got a picture. Sucks to walk up a mountain and spend a few hours hanging it just to never get a picture.:(
