RE: ATV's And Deer Hunting
In my experience, No it does not scare deer much if at all. I have rode right past deer on my quad, had deer cross a trail literally right in front of me..stop, turn around and stare at me, and also had them come out on a cut-line right where my bike was parked and start feeding ! One looked at it a couple times, then went back to eatin the grass. That said I always try to get into and out of my hunting area with the least amount of disturbance possible. Just ride in, park and shut it down as soon as possible. Then a nice quiet walk the last little way into my stand.
