Bigbulls said most of it. Here's a bit more.

One thing that I've notice is conditioning. I have a friend who's killed all over North America. He stopped hunting for health reasons. His new passion, feeding deer, not hunting. The deer are conditioned. He drives an electric golf cart to the same place in his land to feed deer. They litterally come running. I've seen it from a distance. They literally eat from his hand. Now when me and another buddy took the cart at the same time with the same food, they came, but they kept their distance. Think they're not conditioned? It took years for this to happen. Those hunters probably spray themselves down as they're getting out of the trucks, off the 4-Wheeler, etc, but they're not hunting in the normal conditions that most of us hunt. That and other factors make it look easy and defy the logic most of us know for our own hunting rules. Deer that are not in a heavily pressured area will react differently to scents. When you're on a protected farm deer do not have the same concern or highten alertness they would on a heavily hunted game land.

Also you have to think about how many hours these guys spend on camera at these ranches, farms, etc. Do you think they shoota monster every time?No there's countless hoursand probablytrips where most of our logical rules took place and they were skunked or did poorly (in their terms... not for TV). Just my thoughts...
