The deer that I had it happen to me with was a yearling doe. It doesn't matter how old or smart they are, if they catch that movement, they're ready to bolt. Also, I think while they're staring, the best thing to do is sit as still as possible. I've been busted before from movement, and if you sit still long enough, MOST OF THE TIME, the deer will go back to whatever was on its mind before. And when a deer stomps its foot, or does the headbob, it means they know, something ain't right.
yeah thats what i thought about the deer stomp.
well we were staring each other down and he got back to what he was doing and he was walking like normal and i wanted to make sure he didnt get in the brush and be gone and so i moved and THEN he ran. what can i do different about that?
Not sure. Tough to say when I wasn't there. Different deer do different things.
