Sometimes. The bucks that become accustomed are usually the first to get nailed during the next deer season. The ones smart enough to associate hunters with danger live to see another day.

I had a park ranger verify this for me regarding problem bears in a state park near me. He said that problem bears are typically only a problem for one summer, because they're the first to walk into some guy's bait pile come bear season.
