Does he try to leave with the wind in his face? A cross-wind? The wind at his back? Is there any consensus on this or general pattern or does it just seem random? I'm thinking about how to approach afternoon sits.
It is easier to fool a man than to convince him he has been fooled.

The older they get, the more I catch them with wind to their butts. Big boar hogs too.
I almost think the travel downwind until the concentration of human smell dissipates enough they feel safe, I don’t know if this is what big cats and bears do too?

Away from any danger he smells, hears or sees. I've jumped several that went into the water or jumped off a bank to avoid me. Every situation is different.

Ok maybe I need to be more specific with the parameters. You know where he beds and on what wind he beds there. You wanna sneak into within 150ish yds of that and kill him before dark. Not jump him, not have him wind you etc. Is there any info, article, experiences you've had that lead you to think he leaves the bedding area in a certain direction.

I’ve watched mature big game animals all over the place more often than not walk right over bait and lures to get gone during daylight hours. I believe at 5 years old they put human avoidance above all other factors. True. You gotta be in his bedroom before daylight to kill him before he lies down, at least with regards to morning sits outside of rut activity.

in hilly country they will travel downwind with does in front of them....eyes in front nose to rear.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I'm thinking about how to approach afternoon sits. If you believe Dan Infalt, it's going to be directly towards either food or does (depending on the time of year)... and wind doesn't matter.

The ones I witnessed usually sit up then scratch their junk before moving on...

My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.
