Didnt Ishi, and or other Indians stop eating meat for a time before hunting? Something to do with animals smelling the meat and knowing that they were carnivores? Just curious, unfortunately i do know that 150 class bucks that are coming right to you dont like the smell of Halls cough drops!! I hunt a hillside and the deer are completely unpredictable in there patterns. Lots of acorn ridges, bedding areas, crab-apples, pines, thickets, etc... and constant swirling winds. Always see and kill my share just like different ideas. I have been so close to shooting 5 or 6 mature big bucks the last 5 years, and they all at the last second have winded me.
