For two years I have been letting deer pass in certain areas on my dads land. This last year I had 4 smaller bucks around me for a good 40 minutes. As shooting hours were about to pass I had a bigger buck stroll into these younger bucks. My shot missed its mark but fortunealty it was not a fatal miss. I replay thet moment everytime I think about deer hunting.

I would say it does. Bigger bucks get bigger for a reason. They let the does and younger bucks enter areas before they do.....sometimes.
