Cutting the throat of a wounded deer is the best way to kill and bleed it out. Slicing the throat is an inhumane method of killing a deer and doesn't bleed it out any faster than gutting it. If the wound does not appear to be fatal, shoot the deer in the head before attempting to field-dress it. It makes no sense to stay in your stand during midday. The truth is, hunters who can patiently sit through the middle of the day dramatically increase their odds of killing a deer, especially in heavily hunted areas.
Many hunters move around at midday, and their activity moves deer.
During the rut, bucks are on the move all day in search of does. A whitetail buck is ready, willing and able to breed from the time he sheds the velvet from his antlers in early fall until he drops the antlers in winter. Using a sex scent anytime during the hunting season may help attract bucks. You can tell buck tracks from doe tracks because a buck drags his feet more. There's no way to determine if tracks were made by a buck or a doe.
