Hmmm Jason, you have shot one buck at 37 and the rest (which is assume is more than 1?) at 25 or under...who's point are you trying to make? I think you just made mine.

And in most cases they don't change pattern unless you are hunting property where they are constantly getting pushed. Otherwise they are VERY repetitive because they are so lathargic.

So, what was your point again? That is one deer at 37 yards doesn't follow a set pattern. I cannot speak for the millions of deer out there, but I can tell you that MOST (sorry, obviously I need to spell it out for you) adhere to patterns and are habitual users of the same trails.
