MOUNTAIN HUNTER, you would think that, but it doesn't really work like that. Like I mentioned, deer, like cows, have 4 chambers in their stomachs, all holding food digested at different levels. "Stick to your ribs" food really doesn't work that way....they must eat about every 4 hours to keep those chambers full.
if thats true, than why doi rarelysee deer in the10+ hours i hunt during the daylight
Because you obviously aren't doing something right. Either the wind is wrong and they are busting you, or you just aren't in the right place. Maybe you move around too much and make too much noise....who knows, but I assure you that deer have to eat. They may also be bedding right in the food, so they don't have to move farther than say 50 feet or so, but I promise you they are eating.
