Lots of good ideas. The ones that have busted me are parking my truck in a pinch point even though it is 500 yards away. It isn't normal and it stops any deer from coming from that direction. The other thing is the zipper on the popup. Make sure it doesn't make noise. The two worst noises in the woods are zippers and velcro.

Good Luck.

get off the ground and in a tree if you can. older the deer smarter the deer.

Where I hunt most of my deer will come into the feeder on the downwind side. I watch them come in from the upwind side and circle around to approach the feeder with the wind in their face. Might want to relocate your pop up so that your on a cross wind. I've had little to no success hunting out of a pop up, movemment and scent is much easier for them to pick up on from graound level. Like txhntr said, burn a hunt and watch your feeder from a distance and see how the deer are moving, and their reaction to your blind. Good luck!

They are on my game cam coming in @ 7:11-7:44 every evening EXCEPT when I'm there. Blinds been out since September. Someone mentioned parking in a pinch point. That may be happening for me but last hunt I walked in from the furthest point possible, about 100 2/3 of a mile away!. If I'm geeting winded then it's from a LOOONG ways away, like 100 yds or more. But I don't think that's happening due to my scent control. I've set in a blind w/a guy smoking w/ZERO scent control & the wind blowing straight @ the deer & wasn't winded from 75 yds away(rifle season). I need a tripod set up in the tree line about 45 yds to the north I think. There's no other place in the area to put my pop up due to the cover situation.

How many time do I have to tell you to stop using that nasty after shave? HUH?

Long story but I'll try to keep it short. When I hunted a lease with stands and feeders, I put my tripod in a Cedar tree 25 yards from my feeder. Deer would always come in from upwind, stand around, and circle downwind. After 3 weekends in a row (twice a day) of this, I got mad and jerked my stand out of the Cedar. I moved it about 30 yards against a Mesquite on the other side of the trail they were useing. At the regular time, I see them poke their heads out of the brush a couple hundred yards out and look towards the feeder. They walk a ways then stop and look at the feeder. Finally, they just walk right in on the upwind side. Problem is that they walked by 10 yards from me in my new stand placement and never looked my way. At least it was a problem for one of them. As far as I knew, I'd never been seen getting in or out of the stand but they had me pegged. That was the last "permanent" bow stand I hunted out of. Since then if I use a stand, I move it every day. Maybe not far but to a different place.

Whatever is wrong is wrong. You won't win this game especially if you have overstayed your welcome. Relocate and maybe you can come back later in the season. Some nice tips in the thread put them to use at a new location and let us know what happens. G'luck
