most would say stay out of the area for a day or two and i agree but then again i dont,on one morning hunt i had been had by a nice buck caught me trying to get in position for a shot and he took off like he had nitro in him,but that night i went back out sat in the same stand and low and behold the same buck came walking in and he's hanging on my wall it's a tough decision granted good luck on your's either way
