Dump trucks

I found a new hunting spot. It is right next to a dirt pit. I see a dump truck pass by every hour. They are about 10 yards away going 40 mph down a dirt road. They make some noise. Will this scare the deer away? I hunt right next to a highway, also. The pit has been there for years. Will the deer flee when they see a dump truck?

RE: Dump trucks

My boss has a gravel pit on his hunting property and that seems to be the place to hunt. Right off the edges of it. See lots of tracks in it, may be due to the mineral content in the rock because there is no greenery what so ever in it.

Good luck!!!
