So here's what I have...
In June I put out cameras and immediately started getting pictures of a really nice deer. I had him at 60 yards last year but couldn't close the deal so I was excited to see he was back. I had him on camera through June, through July, no pictures in August, several pictures in September, and several in October. I got the last picture of him on the 24th of October.
I started vacation on election day and have hunted this area several times since trying to get a crack at him. Only I haven't laid eyes on him. I think I've seen every other buck in the area 3 and 4 times but this guy has vanished. I'm 99% sure he is no longer on the property. I've never really ran into this problem before so I figured I would ask you whitetail wizards. If a buck moves out like that right before the rut, what are the odds that he ends up back in the area sometime this month? Have any of you ran into this situation and had a buck show up again?
Right now the only thing I'm holding onto is the fact that he never stepped in front of a camera during August and showed up again in September. Maybe he is still around, just out smarting me.
