Nice buck. Have you moved your TC to trails or water sources to see if he is moving earlier on those locations?

Yeah, this guy is all over the property but out of 15 cameras he has been nocturnal on all of them.The SOB must wear a watch because as soon as legal hours are over there he is and hangs out all morning until about an hour before daylight.

Sounds familiar. ....good luck
If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.

Hopefully he'll show up and you'll get him. I've always been amazed at how many game pics I start getting of bucks that have been nocturnal all season right up until the last couple of weeks of the season and they start showing up during daylight hours.

Sounds like he is not living on your hunting property if he is only showing up after dark.

Sounds like he is not living on your hunting property if he is only showing up after dark. That's what I was thinking as well. We are on a small parcel compared to the properties surrounding us. I am pretty sure that the best I can hope for is that he slips up.

Put some trail cams out (or move existing ones) and see if you can tell what direction he is coming from. He might be bedded down nearby by, and as you say, he might make a mistake and come out earlier than what he has normally been doing. (but don't hunt 'on the fenceline') Keep the wind in mind and Good Luck!

We have bucks coming in at dawn and dusk now. Secondary rut. Last week my son shot a doe that had been bred only a few hours before.

Hey Kevin, This has worked for me. If you've been feeding protein put some down early afternoon, then have someone drive you to blind, drop you off and leave. I guide hunts and had a big buck that was doing the same thing. We'd catch him on cam but never could get a shot. These deer are use to traffic and I guess when he heard my truck drive off in the distance instead of hearing my truck coming but never leaving, even though we walk into the blinds........That's what got him.
