Deer down can I go back to that spot

[Skurd]

Hey guys
Brother got a doe opening day in one of our honey holes. Just wondering if 5 days later it would still produce? Or should I wait longer? I know deer elk and moose frequent the spot as it’s on there routes. So what do you think?

We took one in the morning on the edge of a field and they were back that night sniffing where the gut pile was before the coyotes ate it,

I would go back in!
We have shot deer the day after we got one in our honey hole.

Defintely go back. I've seen a small group of deer in one of our honey holes stick around after one of their buddies was dropped on the spot.

I left the gutpile and bones of two quartered out deer under a trail cam. The magpies, ravens, an eagle and 3 coyotes were busy for 21 hours before the 2 deers worth of guts and bones was completely clear of the area. 2 hours after the fighting of the clean up animals left, Deer walked through paying no attention to the bloody grass. Elk came through 2 days later and didn't pay any attention.

The year before in the exact same spot, i left a single deer kill gutpile and it was cleaned up in 8 hours completely by magpies and ravens. Deer were there that evening same day. Paid no attention to the blood soaked grass.

Definitely go back if it's a good area. Those animals see and smell death on a daily basis.

If it was me, I'd still hunt the area.
