[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 4163920, member: 14646"] Several of you have stated if "she blows she goes". While I believe deer are smart animals I can't get entirely on board with taking a doe because she blew at you. She's feeding near your stand and sees you walk in now she will avoid that feeding area for the rest of the season or you are in your ground blind where she can't see you but smells something "not right" and blows so she's gone for the season also? Honestly, no sure i buy into this theory. I hunt on my 45 acres which only about 25 of it are really huntable and during late Summer and all of Fall when I'm prepping my food plots, putting up stands, refilling the feeders and actually hunting the season I unfortunately make does blow at me but they return fairly quickly. I don't think our deer population is strong enough to support this theory or I'd never see deer on my land, especially this time of year. When natural forage dies off enough I feel the deer's natural instict to come to a corn feeder or nice, tall greened up food plot overrides them sniffing you out or seeing you a day or two prior.
