I don’t know if you want to call it smarter or more wary or what but there is some difference in them. I’ve got old does that will walk out into my fields during the daylight with no issues….but those old bucks won’t….What’s even more interesting is that I’ve sat out here and watched a lot of deer activity in a clover plot I have that’s lit of by a street light. Those old bucks don’t even want to come out of the cover into the street light they’re so wary. During the rut when young bucks come through and start messing with the does the old bucks will start snort wheezing and pitching a fit breaking dog fennel bushes and saplings….but they don’t want to come out of that cover into that light for chit. These are probably 5-8 year old bucks we’re talking about.

….and no I don’t shoot anything in the street light….i don’t care about killing them that much anymore….it’s just fun to watch.
