Deer In Food Plot

Postby Hooded Merganzer » Sun Nov 20, 2011 2:47 pm

How long do you wait after dark when you have deer feeding in front of your stand?
Have a shooting house on the edge of a food plot that holds a bunch of deer. Many
times deer are feeding after shooting hours and I'm stuck in the stand waiting for
them to leave. Just curious what's everyone's take on when to leave.

I generally throw my beer cans at them. If that doesn't work, I come down and shoo them off.
Where'd who go?

By that time I have to pee so bad, I usually just whip out my "Willie" and the flash flood usually will run them off!

may sound dumb, but i try to bang on my stand or make some kind of noise to scare the deer off so they don't know where I am. I would just rather them run off scared of the unknown sound than let them pinpoint my setup by flashing them. Granted, if there is a mature buck in the field I will just play it safe and wait for him to leave, if I can hold my piss :)

I always take a cushion and if there are does in the field, I frisbee that thing into the plot. I have also started blowing at the deer and that usually gets them to leave without letting them pinpoint you.
