If there was corn and salt in a feild and they saw one of there buddys die, how long tell they come back? How many times could this happen tell they stop coming back?

i have seen deer come up and "sniff" a dead deer that has just been shot. i don't think it's as much dumb as curious.

Deer thatshow upsoon after a kill may not have been therewhen one was killed. The deer that were there will be back. Theyhave to eat.

ok, but you understand waht I'm asking, right? If I feed the **** out of them can I kepp pulging them all season in the same spot?

Nice buck Doubled 150! Can I come hunt your spot?

Anyone can hunt where I got that buck. Public ground in MO.

I thought you were talking about them coming back to a corn field. Sounds like you're talking about baiting. That's illegal.

Anyway, if you're in the same spot day after day, the deer will figure it out and won't come back...at least not during daylight hours.

They will come back, in the right conditions. Where I hunt, I am fortunate enought to have a silage (spelling?) pile 15 yards away from my shack, so when there is a fair amount of snow on the ground, the deer come in pretty thick, we have shot 4 in one afternoon before, we took 2 fat does with a bow, and 2 more with a ML. we left em lay out in the snow not even 5 feet from the pile after we gutted them, which we gutted them right where they fell, and that was only 10-20 yards away. They just kept coming in like ants to a picnic. And thats an every day thing, I bet we shot 10 deer there in a month, and it didn't stop em.

Well, its not illegal in every state, it is here in Illinois, but it very well might not be where he lives.

True, deer are not smart. Cautious, keen senses yes, smart, no.
