Too much pressure??????

Too much pressure??????
I have my stealth cam out in my hunting grounds, and I go out every weekend and check them. For the first month that they were out, I would get 24+ pictures a week. Tha last 2 weeks, I have been getting fewer and fewer. Last weekend one of my cameras was full but the other one only had 12 pictures on it (it was a 24 exposure roll). Now today I went and checked them and had 10 on one, and only 8 on the other. Do you think I am scaring them away? Should I take my cameras out and stay away for a while?

RE: Too much pressure??????
I think that either the cam or your presence when checking the cam is spooking the deer in that particular area. I agree with SCHL44. You should move the cams to different locations every week. That way the deer do not become accustomed to associating the cam with you and vice versa.
