Default RE: Deer keep smelling me and leaving

I've been hunting this area now for about 2 solid weeks.
There's the most likely answer , they now know where your stand is and they're spotting you by either sight or scent . That spot is played out , find a new one for a week or two . You can use the topo feature of aerial photo sites to ID parcels of public land that may not be too pressured if you have no other private access . Never underestimate public land , the farther you go from your truck the less competition you'll have .
