Watch the wind
Look at where its cold and warm and where you would be if you were a deer

When you do see an animal just stop and watch it for a change, you will learn a lot more from a live deer than a dead one.

Yip! When we were young and fit and lacking in knowledge km travelled equalled hunting...or so we thought. Now, old and broken and wise we have a saying that if we have gone further than 600m from our camp, and not tipped something over we have stuffed up. Lots more looking, observing surroundings and less walking.
Come the magic months (Dec/Jan) its multiple deer every trip.
Oh, did I say we have been hunting the same place for more than 30 years
