V8 I have been seeing deer but the only deer that I have had come into bow range are young does and two little bucks. Had a definet shooter chase three little bucks acroos the alfalfa field about 90yds from my stand I grunted but he wanted nothing to do with me and commenced to chasing those littler bucks off of that field. he stopped for 5 seconds then took off running again, I think if I would have had the decoy out he might have came over but since he didn't see anything he didn't bother. But I have also heard that decoys can scare bucks out of an area also
