Guess what time of the year it is. Not only is it close to Thanksgiving but its also deer season! Just dream about that 10-pointer, thick as beef and rack glinting in the late-day sun, stepped out of the greenbrier, took a quick look around, lowered his head and began sneaking your way. You put tension on the bowstring. Twenty seconds later he stopped, snapped his head up, and wheeled back into the thicket with astonishing speed. You hadn’t moved. Hadn’t made a sound. And the evening breeze was perfect. But the buck was gone, and once again your were left to wonder went wrong, and to marvel at the uncanny senses of a mature buck.
Here are something's you didn't know about deer senses. Deer can see you better than you think deer have a wide field of view. They can scan the woods and pick up any movement at or just below the horizon. They can hear what you can hear, deer can detect ultra-high frequency sounds that we cannot hear. They also can smell you from a half a mile away. So the next time you go hunting think about how good a deer senses are.
