Thanks BOBO, and great point Navasot.
If you want some friendly advice, get a haircut and take a bath. You wouldn't get hassled so much.

May try taking cams out and putting them on a corn pile somewhere. We do this every year and it never fails that we see new bucks that have never shown up on feeder or protein feeder cams.

You said yal have 2 1000 acre neighbors and a 200 acre neighbor. Are they all low fence?
How many deer a year do yal shoot in the past 5 years? How many stands/feeders do you have? Do you feed year round or just during the season? Are you throwing corn on timed feeders or is it mostly free choice feeders? I have seen some pretty crazy overhunted places in Duval Co, like where you cans see 8 deer blinds from yours all within a couple hundred yards of each other. I can see about 4 blinds from my blind, and they aren't ours. Although I usually don't see anyone hunting them.

Do you know how many people total hunt yals property and how many deer are killed on it a year?
In my opinion you are hunting on a see deer kill deer type of property. Due to the pressure surrounding you and possibly on your property there is no way those deer can be expected to survive. If your happy shooting whatever walks out march on. If your trying to shoot mature deer you need to hunt where they are/can exist, in which case I would find somewhere else to hunt. May not be the warm and fuzzy you want to hear, but that's just how I see it.

Bad thing about a hunting show is they can put a whole seasons worth of hunting into 30 minutes and show a deer get killed.. lol Truth! This has been the slowest year I can ever remember but if I took all the video I've taken this season and made a 30 minute show I'd have people begging to hunt with me.

I can see about 4 blinds from my blind, and they aren't ours. Although I usually don't see anyone hunting them. I totally agree with you, but we are owners, so we're trying to do our best. Only three of us hunt the property and we have only killed 2 doe and 1 buck in five seasons. Of course, you never know if someone is sneaking onto the property when we're not there. I've been actively searching for a lease that I can actually shoot something. I just haven't been able to get onto one.

I finally got a shot at a decent buck, and I can't find any blood. I've never missed any animal I've shot at, so I'm a little frazzled. I'm back in my blind just in case he comes back. I'll check for blood and the buck again this afternoon. I'm assuming I got a clean miss. Boy how heart-wrenching.
