I have also shot a doe and left it where it was to keep hunting for a buck or pigs or coyotes. I have seen deer walk right past another dead deer. It's life. They've seen many dead deer in their time.
You know, I haver never understood why one poster can't respect another's opinion. Its almost like they feel insecure.
In my experience, it does affect. I own land behind my house. Hunted it for the last 11 years. I know where the deer are coming thru and where not. I have dumped deer renderings before over the hill near where they always come up. After that, nothing all season long.
Sure, you got your little story, and I have got many stories too to back up my opinion.
If the poster is stupid enough to gut his favorite stand, go for it. Its his deer, his stand. No skin off my nose.
