RE: Please double check my deer knowledge.
You' ve got it pretty much covered. Only missed one thing that I can see: Trust me, I' m no expert, but 24 years of hunting has given me one main observation about deer: they are unpredictable at best. They obviously do certain things to survive - eat, sleep, and reproduce and we know the behaviors around these things, BUT deer can blow your mind sometimes too. I don' t think we could ever know TOO much about deer, hang in there and keep up the learning.
