When your real proud of how quiet you are…

I put the stealth mode into gear yesterday walking to my blind.. didn't spook a single deer.. until I looked at my camera this morning and realized this photo was taken the exact moment I entered the woods… lol

It's impossible.

I use video exclusively now and I'm shocked how often I will have one or more deer in front of the camera "doing their thing" and then suddenly all heads lift up and look in the same direction. Turning up the volume on the video, I can't hear anything. Yet one minute later here's the video of my driving up on my ATV. The deer could hear it coming from a LONG way away.

It's amazing how many deer we spook without ever knowing it.

Certainly true.

And then there's the ones you can't seem to spook. Can't tell you how many times, walking in without being quiet in the morning, I've seen deer's eyes up ahead of me. As long as I keep my head down and don't look right at them, they often just let me walk on past.

I remote started my truck this morning and the drive way exploded with activity! lol the deer were eating on some trees I cut yesterday and I didn't see them there in the driveway! lol. Sometimes you just don't see them when they're right in your face !

Deer can hear you open a Little Debbie from 100 yds away. Ask me how I know!

And if it's one of those foil-wrapped PopTarts, make that 250 yards!

Those ears of theirs ate like sonar, they can hear a lot that we don't. Watching them and watching their body language as they pick things up is kinda educating.
