Default RE: Deer Memory

Bucks are animals and are only effected by two things SEX and FOOD. Other habit changes are minor and will soon dissappear in the quest for food and sex. I hunt a funnel so the bucks have to use it. Changes are not as pronounced at funnels if they were spooked. This summer I had a small heard of Bucks a 10 point, got him two weeks ago
2 8 poiunts and a few smaller deer in my orchard every day. Before acorn drop this is there only major food source. I ran them off every afternoon, even hit them with rocks and apples. They came back every day until the Acorns dropped and they had a more secluded food source. FOLLOW THE DOES AND THE FOOD and all else is EXTRA!!! My silly opinion Striper Phil
