Is there a problem here?

I never had this happen before. I pilled the chip in my scouting camera in the back yard and over the last 18 days I have 100's of pictures but not a single buck. What the heck is up? It is all Does and their offspring from this year. I used to get awesome photos of BIG and I do mean BIG mature 8,10 & 12 point bucks on a regular basis. Even though most of the bucks showed up at night, still no buck photos even at night. What do you all think is up?

I had never heard of the October lull until I started bowhunting. I have had nothing on my trail cam but does for the last 2 1/2 weeks. I occasionally will get a mature buck, but nothing like before. I don't buy into the whole acorn idea, because I constantly have 5-10 does feeding underneath me while hunting. I would guess the big boys are laying low. In my case I think they disappeared off the face of the earth.
