    Ever get busted by deer (or any animal) while checkin a cam?

    I did for the first time today. Unfortunately now I feel as though I "ruined" the spot. What do you guys think will happen?

    It's a double edged sword. We use minerals to attract the deer in and then try to sneak in to pull cards. Yup, it happens to all of us.

    It's my opinion it will not have much affect at all. If deer in my area abandoned area because they got bumped by human activity, they'd have no place to live. I think their memory of casual encounters is fairly short. But then I have no trophy heads hanging on my walls.

    I am sure that it will be fine. Might be low on pictures for a day or two but doubt you will have any problems.
