Default RE: human scent scaring deer?

i have the answer for you. i have been out to my stands in new joisey and putting out the minerals for 6 weeks now. im checking each lick and i have some areas 7 miles apart from each other and have only seen one set of small tracks in one of my licks. some of the strips and feather grass fields in my game lands have been controlled burned off and the first green sprouts are coming up. in all of those fields i walked out to i saw well over 30 deer in each. they are still herded up and when they leave the field after seeing me they leave in single file. i think there still kinda in winter survival mode and are trying to eat as much green stuff as possible before breaking off to have the fawns. give them another month and i think youll get some pictures. im gonna wait to put up my cameras till the middle august when the bucks will have there new horns and re-fresh my licks. i will leave them out for a week or 2 then pull them out to let things settle down for the end of september bow season.
