“If I were hunting an area where I knew many hunters would come into the woods either from a road or another natural access, I would plan to get into the woods before the other hunters and hope to bag a deer as the pressure approached,” says noted whitetail researcher Dr. Karl Miller of the University of Georgia. “I would let the hunters come to me and pass on by. I’d wait and watch for that second movement of deer trying to escape back behind the hunters.”
That’s smart—often one of the deer that tries to slip out the back door is the biggest buck around.
