It was define fly a weird year around my place also. I've been feeding the deer the last three years and the previous two years was covered up with deer. I could go to my best field and see 3-10 deer every afternoon. The deer very rarely went to my feeding location in daylight hrs. This year I had more pics in daylight where I feed them than ever. But I lost my plot usage for some reason. We saw only 1 small buck in my field this year and very few pics at all on it. I still have plenty of deer using the property but something changed. I can tell you I had way more bucks on cam this year then does which is normally a 50/50 split. Hopefully things change next year for sure.
