Nope deer wont go anywhere. We shoot prob 1000+ rounds a year at my deer camp at our range and theres always deer running around. They get used to it.

I agree with everyone else to a certain point. If this land hasn't been hunted in two years then there are probably a few bucks who are on that property just for that reason. Those would be your older more mature and probably "bigger" deer.

This early in the season I don't think it would bother them, but I would stop shooting a good monthor more before deer season.

These other guys are talking about places that have probably been there for a while. So yes, now the deer are used to it. But i am sure that when those ranges first opened and this and that...that it pushed deer.

Its like a little tract of land that I have. It hadn't been hunted in over 20yrs when I started hunting it. it didn't take long for the deer to notice me there. It didn't stop them from coming in, but they knew something wasn't "normal". Think about this...if you came home one night and someone rearranged your living room. Would you notice it?
