Default RE: Human Activiity on Hunting Grounds.

I agree. You have to show some presence in your hunting area year 'round'. A sudden appearance of humans when hunting season starts will cause deer to become quite wary. I've had deer almost walk up on me when I was clearing lanes, cutting wood, etc. during the summer months. I had one fawn come within 4 feet of me as I took a break sitting on my ATV, I taslked real quietly to it, and it just stood, trying to figure out what I was. quite an experience. It's a standing joke around here that the game commission sends them a copy of the open season days.
