Hearing. Deer have large rotating ears to pinpoint the direction of even faint sounds. They also use this to spy on warning calls of other animals (birds, etc.).
Smell. They have a very acute sense of smell, they detect the presence of any anomalous scents, scents that wouldn't be in the wild, they usually associate these with humans, and deer are constantly sniffing.
Sight. A deer's eyes are its final warning system. They can see about %90 or there surroundings, however they have depth perception only when looking down there nose. However a deers eye sight, much like a Turkey or a T-rex is very keen on detecting movement Contrary to popular belief deer can see more than black and white. They can tell the difference between blue and other colors(which appear to deer as grey), and they have a debated level of sensitivity to Ultra Violet Wavelengths, allowing them to pick out human objects that fluoresce, possibly even heavy urine markings, at a distance. Deer also show a mild sensitivity to yellow.
Common Sense. People friendly deer are not good sport, because there less spooked by people scent, and noises. There also a lot less likely to jump when you raise your gun or bow. On top of that many "friendly" or city deer don't eat a natural diet, often there hand fed grains or apples, which makes them dependent, and more likely to eat garbage and other non-ideal diets.
