When I'm out deer hunting I have to wash all my clothes & spray down with scent killer or the der will smell me & run away. When I put a pair of very smelly old sneakers in my garden to keep the deer from eating EVERYTHING, they totally ignore them & feed there every night.

Because in scenario 1 you are entering their living space and in scenario 2 they are entering yours.

Never thought about it that way. Kinda the same concept on my place. Machinery and ATV noise does not spook them. They have heard it their entire lives and it never hurt them....

This is the exact reason we use our woods year round. We have guys running gold dredges, camping, and riding atv's from the first warm day until gun season and never have an issue with spooky deer. The only thing that gets us is when the coon hunters from down the road decide to run the entire country block the week leading up to gun season. I love trespassers.
