Ok so as many know I use the smoker, I believe in it.
Yesterday, on my way to stand (running behind as usual), I jumped a doe. She runs 50 yards, blows and walks off.
I figure my hunt is over but what the hell Ill sit in the stand anyhow and she didn't watch me get up into he tree so I was in the clear
About 30 minutes later I hear a deer blow 10 yards behind me.
Now Im really scratching my head as I can figure why she would blow and take off, stop, blow, stop, etc.
She then circles up wind of me 70 yards away, and blows again then trots off. Now I really think my hunts over.
Then I have a another deer come down wind of me, looked to be a good buck, comes right by me, and goes right into my lane (bit to dark for shot)
Then I have 2 or 3 more deer move above where the buck was, I am downwind of them and they are 70 yards away. They started to blow like a mother fer.
Any ideas on what could be going on? I am 25 foot up a tree, and figure it couldn't be all my scent as the wind was in my favor a few times. Coyote piss or something in area?
