Can’t offer a one does all answer for you as every situation can and will vary. Actually having deer to practice drawing on is a great tool if you can perform it without compromising yourself. Whether you feel they can hear you or not, if you’re getting to full draw and don’t have heads snapping up and sets of eyes staring bullet holes through you then you’re getting it done. Drawing early isn’t a bad thing if you can potentially hold at draw for as long as you want but it’s a roll of the dice if you can’t. They can hold up for no apparent reason for longer than you’d ever think necessary and for whatever reason they please. There’s no one answer. The more you hunt, you’ll develop a better feel of the animals and situations you’re facing.
