Clumped up crap doesnt mean buck crap, is what my biologist buddy told me. He said that clumped up crap was the first crap taken after being bedded down for a while. All I know for sure is that it means a deer had to poo.

Old does clump up sometimes too. Bucks do most of the time even later in the day.

I think you are right but a clue to weather or not it is from a mature deer is the size of the pellets .
