RE: Do ATV's spook deer?
I believe they get conditioned to them and alter their routes because of them.When I'm hunting at my cabin,I'll watch deer coming across an oak flat.When they hit a certain spot,they ALWAYS look across the road to where another cabin is across from mine.These guys are always on their atv's.When they see it's ok over there,they'll continue on their way.Two years ago I was talking to them and they said they didn't see any deer(all the while their kids were running 4 wheelers all over the place).I told them I saw 22 buck that season on my property.They couldn't figure it out
