[QUOTE="Boll Weevil, post: 3698980, member: 10006"] Thanks BSK and BHC for the input. I'm in agreement that there's far too much individual variability and too many assumptions to make a valid inference. Good points that "deer do not have imaginations" and there's just no way to know what's going on in their head. In some ways, running cameras has generated more questions (at least for me) than answers. I spend more time thinking about old buck behavior than in the past and perhaps applying some of what I learn to my hunting tactics. They're just a totally different creature and it's a blast trying to figure them out. I should probably just be satisfied that he's on my side of the fence rather than start wondering WHY he's on my side of the fence but dangit...my brain just ain't wired that way! [/QUOTE]
