Hey guys, as the subject says... Nothing but does and fawns on the deer cam. I got a new deer lease in June of this year and set up my blind and feeders by July. The issue is I have only seen does and fawns on the game cams. The lease has a lot of hunting pressure during hunting season but not during off season. One of the rules of the lease is that none of the people that lease can kill a doe. Only if you take a guest like a child or wife can they kill a doe. Anybody got any idea why I haven't seen anything with antlers on the cam? Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Like a good friend used to say, hope is the last thing that dies!

That's weird lease rules and bad for the herd in general. There no way you can manage you ratios that way.

My guess would be that so much hunting pressure is put on the bucks that they avoid the feeders till the rut starts. Have you moved you cameras around on trails and water sources to see what you can find?

No I haven't moved the cameras I just set up 3 feeders with a game cam on each one.

Yeah I wouldnt be on a lease that doesnt allow Does to be killed unless it is by a guest. That is bad herd management.
Iv got hogs an can show you a good time.
