And as far as generalizations go about deer behavior?? That is the only way to approach deer hunting to ensure an elevated level of success based on skill. If you don't use behavior generalizations then why set up on high potential feeding sites or funnels from bedding to feeding. Or why even bother hunting areas that are know to hold does? Why rattle or use scents like Tinks #69?

We use these tactics based on how a deer would general react with hopes that the reaction is positive in harvesting a deer.
