RE: deer blowing at you
I dont completely believe that once a deer blows your hunt is over??!!
It doesnt happen to me much, but it did actually happen to me this year. I got settled in my stand and had a deer blow at me from probably 15yrds behind me?? I dont know, I was in an area too thick to see anything behind me?!!!!!
It wasnt 20mins later had a small 8pt come in, 20mins later had a 4pt come in from "blowing" direction, 20mins later had another small 4pt come in?? Then again the deer blowing could have been blowing at something else not me, but I am convinced that if a deer blows your hunt is not particularly over. It doesnt help, but it is no reason to completely give up on the spot!!!
Gd Luck!!
