For every story of a wiley deer that outsmarted someone there is one about a deer that walked right into someone else.......there is no cover-all statement to assess deer smarts or lack there of. Each situation is different..............every deer is a genious right up to the point when it gets killed.
That just about sums this whole discussion up, atlasman. Good job of cutting through the crap. It was a good hunt, an ethical kill, and a great buck.
