If you spot a deer in the distance, back out and crawl/stalk to the edge where you've seen the deer. If you see nothing, back away from the edge, walk a few hundred yards and repeat.
I learned it depends on your definition of "walk in". I found using shallower draws that led into the larger coulees I wanted to glass worked well because you kept your body shape below the horizon then I could walk right in and have less chance of spooking anything up. Then its only a 20 yard crawl to get into glassing position if needed.
