One evening I was bow hunting and some idiot comes along banging his climbing stand thru the brush. I can here him climb a tree and I was going to leave. Then it dawned on me that any deer that wind him will circle right to me so I stayed. A while later I here a snort and I get ready. Along comes an 8 pointer right past my tree. I drew on him and said "your dead" then let up. he was a little small so he got a free pass.
Cool story Magic! During the gun season I let all the yahoo's in my area that but up to our land chase all the deer to me. You can tell when they get off there stands in the morning, deer coming by frequently! I see more deer and big bucks during the gun season usually more then any time of the year. Everyone in my area has this drive thing forced in there heads, I get more out of it then they do little do they know!
Ditto here in Iowa. 2 of my last 3 deer including my biggest buck came in to range so preoccupied about what had scared them that they never knew I was there until it was too late!
My problem with drives is that you have to hit a moving target usually, it's a helluva lot easier to hit a deer that is standing still or walking slowly than a runner!
