Interesting you set up off of ridges. Where I’m at, we typically have to set up on the tops of ridges (usually around the breaks where they start falling off). Most of the deer bed ‘lower’ and then move up in the evening or after dark. We want to go down after them, but there’s just not a good way to go down a cow’s face in the forest quietly or without being spotted from quite a distance in the afternoons. We’ve been racking our brains trying to get to these deer. Almost have to hunt them in the mornings, and get there crazy early to beat them in.
What usually gives you away? Smell or them seeing you access? I would think your scent will drop with the thermal in the evening putting those deer on alert.
