Today I decided to sleep in and go out in early afternoon. I was headed to a thicket where I set a milk crate for a ground blind by a huge hickory tree. Yesterday I spooked a bedded doe from near there. Well, today I get up there and I was 20 feet from this thicket . Suddenly this doe crashes out and knocks over my milk crate. She was bedded on the ground where I cleared all the leaves and debris. Now surely this deer could smell that I had been there??? I even relieved myself there. So much for scent control!!! Guess where I' ll be tomorrow morning? See if she' ll be there 3 days in a row......
She' s a decent sized doe so it' s not like she' s a yearling and doesn' t know better.
