i did spook a couple of deer when i first walked into the woods about 150yards from my stand

got to my standset there i did notsee anything for a couple hour which every otherday i have seenfrom 3 to 5 deer before10.00 am

i seen one deer that come from behind me. i think he might have smelledme when he got about50 yards out he snorted alot for five mins or so but never looked at me then ran off .then 20 mins later hes back and doing the same thing for five mins or so .then left quickly again

that was all for the day and i even cut my finger when i got down from the stand holding and arrow

Some days are better than others. It's hunting, not the zoo. You need to learn to enjoy all the other aspects of hunting. Oh, have your teacherteach youabout run on sentences.

That bothers me too. It's hard to get the point of the sentence sometimes.


Bigtim, deer have INCREDIBLE noses (I'm sure you're aware of this, but had to say it). You can do as much as you can to REDUCE your chances of being scented, but I don't think you can beat a deer's nose everytime. You just got busted. It happens. Better luck next time.;)
