UPDATE!!!
Tonight I was hunting from a lock-on stand. I know, I know - Benedict Arnold.
I had been standing for about an hour when I decided to sit back down. As I was slowly sitting, off to my left I saw a lone adult doe watching me.
She began to do the head-bob trying to get me to move again. Since I was frozen, she slowly circled downwind. Once down wind of me she began to relax when she couldn't wind me. She ate a few apples and was almost totally relaxed. I couldn't believe it. When she began to circle downwind I just knew it was all over. I was prepared for blowing and stomping that never came.
Now I don't want to be a premature scentlokulator so I won't say I'm 100% convinced just yet. However, that was a pretty compelling experience.
