How often do you check your cameras? If I only had one pic of a doe and let my camera stand for 2 weeks I would be checking out other areas.

It was only out two days. But they hardly touched the corn. Should i wait longer between checking them? Or just move them? I was bummed that's all i got and that the corn wasnt gone. lol

I wouldn't give it any less than a week. The scent you leave on the ground, the camera, the tree your putting the cam on will take them a little while to get used to. It sometimes takes them a couple days for them to find the corn if its not on a major travel route. Its tough believe me but I don't check mine any sooner than 2 weeks, but give it a week at least. I have found that if you spread the corn rather than dumping it in one pile it helps as well. More natural and takes them some time to get all of it. Just my 2 cents.

This on your place near Micanopy? Is there any trail in and out of those trees from that clearing you can see in the picture? You might look around the edges of that clearing for well-used entry/exit points and then find a spot a few yards in to set your camera up.

Usually a little tree line next to a clear cut like that is a prime travel area. Give it a few days. That pine tree looks like a good place for a climber

That should be a good spot to put a cam. I'd throw a whole bag around and leave a small pile where you have it. It takes time for them to find it but when they do you should start getting a good amount of pics. Stand where the pile is and sling it all over including along the outside edge of the clearing. When checking it I just walk in as quietly as I can and swap cards real quick and check it when out of the area.
