Just thought I'd share this observation and get some feedback-
Just because a doe stamps the ground and makes that alarm-snort we all hate to hear, it doesn't mean that it's game over.
When you hear that noise, don't move a muscle (other than your eyes).
I've had numerous experiences now where a doe will look right at my blind and be a little wary...enough to sound the alarm.
But then she's not so sure and doesn't bolt....if you just sit still and give 'em time, more often than not they'll settle down and go back to feeding or whatever they were doing.
