RE: Do ATV's spook deer?
last year i hunted on a farm where the deer were used to seeing all types of things,tractors trucks and atv's
i rode my atv to within 50yds of my stand everytime i hunted.after i got there it was straight to the stand and straight back out. i could still my atv while on my stand ,a ladder stand.i saw over 100 deer in 3 weeks from that stand i killed 5 bucks,2 were the biggest i'd seen on the property before the season. i think riding a atv on your hunt property will do far less damage then walking all over it. the deer on this farm smell fumes from all types of vehicles daily alot more then they smell me.
