Does often snort at each other and bucks that are being a pain in the arse. Any deer that can't see you doesn't have a clue what the ^&&**( is snorting about. You guys that "hang it up" are missing out on a day of hunting IMO. Especially during the last week of October thru Mid December.
I shot a 161 inch 10 point last year by staying. 6 does and this buckbusted me going up my ladder into my stand at daylight.They all headed for the brush and disappeared.About an hour later a doe came out,followed by him. I took care of her shadow. Would have never shot him if I would have went home.
Infact if I decide to stay until10:00 I stay up till that exact minute. I don't know how many times I have been busted if I would have stayed till I said I was going too...I would have killed it.
