That just shows the good and  not so good side of trail cams.
No camera= no regrets.  No camera also equals no adrenaline inducing picture of a fine buck.

Had a similar experience. One of my cameras is in front of my favorite stand, and on the day I chose to rest after two weeks of hard hunting, the biggest buck I've caught on camera went right by the stand, at 7:46 while I was sitting in the cabin 200 yards away. Huge body and a rack in the 160 or better class. I love those cameras!

This morning, I sat in the spot where the trail cam was. Nothing had come by in the night. I did enjoy rattling in a small buck, but the good buck didn't show. On my way to the truck, I spied a deer in a fenceline, at least a quarter of a mile from me, but in the same place that I was yesterday. I put the glasses on him, and guess who it was?!! Yep, the buck from yesterday's trail cam, right where I was yesterday.
I made my way over there, and was way too exposed to get close enough for a shot, but I did get a picture. This buck and I are going to have a warm and fuzzy relationship before the season ends. Here is what he looks like in bright sunshine.
   
I think he will maintain my interest for a while.

Yes, I am hunting on the ground. A bit more of a challenge, but lots of fun! Gotta get back after him this afternoon!

He almost screwed up this morning. I rattled and he came in to about 50 yards and hung up, along with a smaller buddy of his. Would not come in any closer, dang it. Had a little 4x4 at 5 yards later on, but didn't want to take him.
I would still be out there, but the stupid moo cows decided to camp out in the best spots, so I left, only to return this afternoon for another round.
