I think the TR may have more to do with things than you may think. I'm a firm believer in the TR and my property always has one in place. I average 800-1000 photos per week over my TR. I've had the TR in the same spot for approx. 2 1/2 years. You will find that from Oct. -Feb. the deer will not utilize the TR much. At least that has been my experience. The TR is a great tool to inventory your area herd and watching the bucks develop all summer is interesting also.
