northpa, bucks here in wmu2g NEVER left area ,say 1 mile when we had lots of doe..maybe that helps..

NOW, do to lack of doe, they are NORMALLY going 3 miles..they are also making scraps for 3 miles,not 1 mile they used too..

as for studys,well, you just got a study from ole sproul..

as for seeing buck, i am in woods A LOT.. hunt same area,50 years..have retired friends, we have coffee ,sit and watch football, compare info, we trap , i stopped,in woods all time..

we all hunt same areas we have for longtime..we know what is there..

sorry i got off topic again..
