I watched another doe last night for a long time. She looked up and saw a leaf moving and about jumped out of her skin. What made her "look up"? I'm guessing she caught movement. I was 10 yds away, though....and she didn't look up to try to find me.

If a deer can catch a leaf shake and get spooked....ya think she can see you twist your gloved fingers?

This conversation reminds me of most hunters' recollections of a hit they just put on a deer. Most will tell you the hit was better than it actually is (when the recovery is made). So we are COMPLETELY motionles and they "look up"? COMPLETELY scent free....and they "look up"? NO WAY they caught your scent or movement?

Just a difference of opinion(s), guys. I'm still not buying it.
