[QUOTE="Dennis, post: 5733353, member: 20424"] My guess is there’s no correlation. We hunters always want an angle, so we want to believe in these kinds of things. Then when we hunt and see a decent buck, we fall into the trap of confirmation bias. I remember one time I was hunting a small parcel of woods (40 acres) in farm country. I saw a lot of does and some bucks but none of the bucks were interested in the does. I could easily have concluded that the rut hadn’t ramped up yet. Meanwhile my friend hunting the other side of the woods had bucks chasing does all around his stand. We hunters tend to believe what we want to believe, unfortunately. [/QUOTE]
