I don't know if it was the gut pile or just the general disturbance that goes with tracking, gutting, and dragging a deer but I have never had luck hunting the same stand the day after harvesting a deer.

The first time I tried it there were so many crows coming to the gut pile that it had the whole area "*****ed", not even birds or squirrels were out. Only tried it 3 times altogether and never saw a deer the next day, could have been coincidence?
