RE: A quick ?????
I used to always drag my deer away from my stand. Last year was the first time I didn't and I saw no ill effects.
6years ago I shot a 8 pointer bowhunting, and my dad came to help me gut it and drag it out. I asked him if he wanted to take it out into a field since he was going to be hunting the stand the next week. He said no and to just do it there. It was not 50-60 yards from the stand.
He went back 2 afternoons later and killed his biggest buck with a bow that came right past the gut pile.
I still plan on getting mine out of the area if at all possible.
