Looking directly at a deer can alert it to danger and make it harder to get close. Looking indirectly, like at its feet, can help you sneak up without being noticed. This was discovered by Tom Brown, who found that staring directly at an animal can make it aware of danger. Sneaking up and using peripheral vision to keep an eye on the animal without staring directly can help you get closer. that you cannot get within a certain distance of a deer, like touching distance of a deer, if you're staring at it. It can throw your vibe straight up. That's one of the first things that alerts a deer once you get that close. It's the same thing that makes the hairs down on your neck when there's danger. It's that same energy, straight up. Is that a real thing though? Yeah. Okay. When I try sneaking up to a deer, I can look at it from a certain distance, and I imagine that it'll somewhat pick up, but somewhat like whatever is far away. Probably ignore it. Hold on. If you're not looking at the deer, can you look indirectly at it? That's exactly what you do. That's the trick. That's what he teaches, straight up. Hold on. What do I mean indirectly? Because if I'm looking you in the eyeballs, it's going to catch your attention, right? Exactly. But if I'm looking at your feet, you're going to be like, oh, that guy's not looking at me. That's exactly what he says. When you sneak up to the deer, I read this. Justin and I were reading this so many years ago. We're so into sneaking up to animals, crapping together. He actually brought it to my attention first, I believe. He brought it to my attention. I was like, oh my gosh, that makes a lot of sense. Tom Brown was talking about his experiences where if he stares directly at a damn deer or an animal, it'll catch on to his vice, and then it becomes aware of something dangerous, not sure what, and it makes it so much harder to get very close. Then the next thing, the first little crackle of a twig or any mistake he makes, that deer is like, I knew it, and he's out of there, right? Yeah. But if you sneak up to an animal and you look at it indirectly, as in don't look at its face, don't look at its body, you can see it there with your peripheral vision. You can tell when it's looking at you, but try not to put a whole lot of your attention and actual staring at it.
