Deer get used to a routine and when it changes, they pay attention. You can drive a trail every day and they'll ignore you. But if you stop or take a different way, they notice and react.
“In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” ― George Orwell

Electric golf cart. No noise. No smell. Exhaust smell does not permeate hunting clothes.

On another note my cousin always said when his brothers would hunt wood ducks early in the morning they would pass his stand that was on the road on their way home. If he was in his stand he would get them to stop at his stand, turn off their atv for a minute and crank up and go on home. He said the deer associated the atv stopping with picking up the hunter, and right after the atv left the deer would come out.😀😀
That will happen only if those deer aren’t already in the middle of a cribbage game. People don’t know just how smart deer really are.
I was thinking the other day how much I used to hate Bill Clinton. He was freaking George Washington compared to what they are now.

The deer where I hunt are used to hearing atvs and vehicles. We drive atvs close to stand locations then walk a short distance to the stand. I see deer many times within 15 minutes on getting on stand.
Life can be rough on us dreamers.
