Default RE: What's your take on scent checking?

mofireman...."I" think you hit the nail on the head!!

If that deer is relaxed.....I think he'll make that downwind walk. When I shot my deer, last Saturday, I can assure you that NO ONE had hunted within 100 yds of that spot.........in years. They felt totally at ease (as evidenced by 30 of them approaching me from the dead down wind side).

Although the only deer that left the set in a hurry was the one I arrowed........the last 6-7 went around where I was.....tails in the air. What's the chances the last 6-7 deer coming into the set were the bachelors????? Ever seen a flock of turkeys enter a field??? Now...I'm happy with my deer.....but I'd like to have seen those other six or seven a bit closer. Whats the cahnces of that happening, now??????????????
