The deer I got this year was out out a cyprus swamp near Daytona. A few weeks before season opened I cleared the path to my stand and placed landscaping timbers where I had to cross water more than 4" deep. Then on morning I'm hunting i get there about 4am. I walk upto the Cyprus stand as quite as I can. I walk with a broken rythem so I don't sound like a normal person just walking along. I almost always spooked the deer no mater how quite I try to be. but by getting there early they seem to calm down before sunrise. Then around sunrise if they are going to come out then they seem to come out and head twords a tree farm about 1/4 mile away. I've tried calling them out but I've never had any lucK. One time I had one make a grunting snorting sound behind me by I never turned around to look at him.
