dont worry man youll get him eventually, i just got back from hunting, we always hunt the last week as theres way less pressure, me and my dad hunt a piece of private land thats maybe 5km by 5km and we were all alone..i had my trail cams set up, quite a few does coming but only at night!! had a 10 point on cam but never to be seen during the day until our last day there but my dad couldent get a clear shot, we hunt the same style of sloppy bush like you up near st donat. better luck next year..
