PREDATE

Haha, yeah I meant to the stand! I try to be silent and not overheat. Sweating in the stand can make you cold after a while! It also negates any scent control methods.
I keep a red filter on my small light, I scan periodically ahead of me for the glow of deer eyes. If I spot some I will turn and walk well around them. If they hear something running up on them they will bust, therefore deterring from their normal pattern. If they start blowing @ you then that alerts any other deer around and they most likely will all be in thick cover, bedded down well before daylight.
Someone stated that they get in early to let the neighbors push the deer to them. Well this is what you'll be doing by running through the woods. It's also a good way to skewer your eyes on a rogue tree branch!
I have thought about using a mountain bike. They won't be able to hone in on foot steps of a bipedal intruder.
I'm pretty darn nimble for 6' 220lbs!
