If the deer are moving at a trot I would go ahead and draw while they are trotting towards you. Then use your mouth to make a bleet or grunt and it will usually make a buck slam on his brakes and look around. If they are walking, I always draw while they are behind a tree or focused on something else.

I hope this helps alittle bit as well. You can also whistle and a deer will stop.
