    When I moved to NZ I started to hunt in the kaimais and I had to learn to hunt again as it is so much tougher than the European hunting.
    One thing that you don t see many kiwi do is get a good pair of binoculars; yes, even in the dense bush they work well as you can focus at different distances through the foliage, and you will be able to spot an ear, a tail or something else way better and further than with just your naked eyes.
    It was taking me 10 trips to see 1 deer, now is more 6 to 10 trips to kill 1.
    I don't think that what you are doing is necessarily wrong but as the others said, you need to go where the deer are.
    Change spot maybe and see how it goes.
