hey this is my first post and i dont know if im doing this right but ive been hunting for 2 years i my work owns 60 ach and they let me hunt me and my father n law have killed 6 buck 4 really nice ive been shed hunting everyday (found 4 nice ones already) and i check my camera alot im wondering if me being in the woods alot will make the deer go away and not come back ?
 
I check my cameras every 4 weeks in the off season.But during hunting season when the cameras are over scrapes i'll check them every 5-7 days.
 
i also found a buck dying in a ditch about 100yards from my camera last week he had shed his horns well i killed it and put my camera over it and for the next week i had tons of bobcats and after that coyotes then skunks and birds will those predators keep kiiling my deer then move on?

No, it won't make the deer leave the entire area, but it can drive them away from the camera location itself (they may travel 50 yards further away).

Deer live with predators every day. No, it won't drive them away from the general area. I get pictures of coyotes, bobcats and deer in the same location within just minutes of each other.
