in this kind of weather, snow and frost on the ground, i stalk as quiet and slow as i can to where i know the deer come out, when the sun comes up, i sit out there in waiting. or stalk to the nearest or most productive high seat with a hot flask of coffee. and hope the wind stays in my favour and luck is on my side.
walking round all day crunching away will do nothing but educate the deer or my presence.
