Default RE: Deer Movement

How pressured is your hunting area?? I know alot of people tend to think that during peak rut, any buck will get up and run around chasing hot does all day long. In a highly pressured area, some old deer won't act this way regardless if they are in rut or not. For instance, the current deer herd living in the city of Morgantown that we aren't allowed to hunt. Even during full swing rut, I never see bucks chasing does down High Street during the daytime. But drive around town around 2am, and they're chasing through people's yards. Just really depends on where you are hunting at I guess.
