I hunted in 3A the first day and a half and didn't see a deer. Lots of sign but not much activity. I had two guys decided to put there their stands close to mine this year for some reason and I don't think that helped matters. I think one of them was chain smoker and I could smell him every time the wind shifted my way. I'll probably go out with my flintlock after Christmas in 4D.
When I lived there I used a cigar to be sure I was moving into the wind..... I had an uncle I used to hunt with that smoke one cigarette after another and he was alwaus the first one to tag a deer. Dont blame smokers on the lack of deer.....LOL!
