Just because 1 buck freaked doesn't mean all bucks will do it. Some deer spot hunters in trees but lots still tree hunt. I set my blind up, a Double Bull Matrix, sat evening. Had been set less than an hour and a 6 pt walked right by less under 10 yds. Looked at the blind a few times but kept right on walking. Too small to shoot and let him go but different deer react in different ways. I've personally found the better the camo the less you need to brush it in. I've had several bucks come by the blind. Most do not see it or react.
