Have you ever done this before?
On several different occasions, I have had deer under the bow stand that would just stay and stay and stay, foreeeeveeeeeerrr, and not go away! I'd rather them leave out from hearing noises than for them to get a visual of flailing arms and body movement. If they were 30 yards away, I'd just start talking loud enough as if I was talking to you from that distance to where you could hear what I was saying, "Hey ya'll, why don't ya'll start making your way out of here so I can get down?," Then I get that look of attention like they just heard two squirrels break out into an instant brawl, but they go back to eating as if they confirmed that it was such. "I don't think ya'll heard me. I got stuff to do and ya'll are torturing me," "Why don't ya'll wanna stick around like this when I want to install drain ports on you?" They still kind of stand there and graze, cautiously, with heads popping high at attention, with a fresh kernel of corn in their mouth that they're reluctant to crunch on just yet. Maybe another sentence or two of this "one way" way conversation, "I don't think ya'll are getting my point. I have asked ya'll kindly to vacate." Soon you might get one to pick that front foot up and pound it to the ground once or twice, more so to test the others' reactions to see if it's worthy of darting out. They all sort of look at each other, hoping not to be the one to call the shot of making that hasty move. Sooner or later, one decides that it would probably be a good idea to go ahead and bump it on down the path. Without even blowing, one or two may start easing out because they just can't pinpoint where this conversation is coming from, hoping they would at least observe movement attached to the sound, so they could determine if it's possibly just an old rusty beaver or something of that sort. Finally, they'll kind of follow suit with one another and mosey on their way.
I find it pretty comical to entertain myself with what I have talked to them about, and the simple fact that they absolutely hang around for a way longer duration than I ever expected. Of course, I've only done this in "nothing to lose" situations. Maybe four or five different times, but with the same reaction each time I've attempted it........ But......... slip up and make the slightest of a noise when you got one in mind that would fit really well in the YETI, and well, you all know how that works out. LOL
What have you done to flush away the unwanted and somewhat fail to do, at least as quickly as you were anticipating?
