What would YOU do? A hunting question.

[Mike Spaulding]

I like to give the spot some time off if I spook deer from the stand on a hunt.. as for bleating to stop deer.. I used to.. and almost always they would jump the string.. they're alert at that point that something they didn't see is close to them and that puts them on guard.. at least around where I hunt, so I never make noise to stop deer any more.  Just my 2 cents, for what it's worth.

Everbodies "2 cents" adds up to something very valuable. Thank you all! This would make a good poll question don't you think?

I was able to get out last night and seven does/young deer passed by me but at atleast 30yds so I didn't get a shot. Just wanted to update you on this. I will go out tonight and pick a spot closer to the south to hopefully get a closer shot before they start angling to the west.
