Just like the masses, I vote movement by far. A few years back I had a matriarch doe and two fawns 20 yards out. I extended my index finger and mama busted me. I am pretty sure I could have been sitting in the tree with purple polka dots and she wouldn't noticed but I didn't stand a chance after she saw me move.
Have had other times where they have noticed the steam from my breath and reacted to it.
Good shooting.

Glad to talk to all of you, but I'd rather be sitting in a tree stand on a cool morning trying not to move so that the bruiser buck directly below me doesn't figure out that I am watching him!
