Default RE: can deer smell u inside building(stand)/ how far away?

thats been a problem for hunters for as long as there has been hunters.I believe if you up say 20 to 25 ft.and you don't have a swiriling wind the deer will not smell you. if the wind is swirling and gusting , they will get you at one time or another.
as far as the house,if the windows are closed , I don't think they should smell you.although if you have the windows open on all sides to shoot from , it is no different than a blind with no top or sides, just brush to hide you.
