I used to always think that... until I see deer in the fields as they are still being cut.

pressure..has got em. Leave it be a few days then go back in there and setup. Use terrian to hide your approach, creek, low spot, ravines etc..they probably bed down close and can see you..switch it up and out a stand where you can hunt the corn and get in and out without spooking deer...they should be hitting that corn in this cold weather soon..

They will be back, especially when the temps drop.
