    I have a chance to get on a lease that recently put up a couple wind turbines this year. My question to everyone is do you feel the hunting might suffer after the turbines were put up or do deer not notice them?

    Where I grew up there are massive amounts of turbines now.
    Deer, and wildlife in general, will get used to them fairly quickly.

    9 Wind turbines have been across family farm for 10 yrs. when they were under construction season was really slow on the ridge. Now not in the least even when they shed ice the deer will lift their heads then go right back to feeding on clover and winter wheat along the access road. IMO turbine not a problem
