one morning me and dad killed 3 deer from the same setup....by 9am.....none of them cared that we shot gutted and drug the deer back to our little log pile and kept hunting....last year i shot a doe gutted her and drug her down the deer trail not even thinking about it back to my spot....blood leaked all over the trail....gut pile at teh end of it.....deer was shot off of it and ran down it after i shot it.....and yet another deer walked RIGHT down it not an hour after....stopped and LOOKED the dead one i shot in the eye...sniffed...and kept walking......i passed her hoping dad would drop her so i wouldnt have to drag 2 out.....but in my expirience they dont got a care in the world.........but this is rifle season...1million other hunters......deer running as fast as they can praying they arent spotted.....but they have the time to sniff the area and think before they come into it........
