On our farm there is no way to access our woods/hunting stands without jumping deer on the way to the woods and the way back. Bedding/feeding areas on both sides of our woods and we bump deer all the time, no matter how careful and sneaky we try to be. We live in an area with a large deer population. I continue to see the same groups of deer while hunting. Right now there are two groups of 5 that I see from my stand every day. One has two mature does and 3 fawns, the other has one mature doe, two fawns and two yearling does. All of the fawns in these two groups are button bucks. I've jumped/spooked both of these groups numerous times, but they don't seem to change their routines much. They consistently bed in the same areas and feed in the same fields.

We set up shooters to try and catch the deer leaving the bedding areas. I don't really like doing this. Do you think this would have a negative effect on the deer population using those bedding areas. Maybe causing them to leave and not return?
