Myth: The largest doe in a herd is the oldest.
Fact: Middle-aged does tend to be the largest. They get heavier and heavier each year until around 4 or 5-years-old; after that, their size slowly decreases.
Myth: The oldest, biggest bucks have the largest home ranges.
Fact: Younger bucks have larger home ranges. Old bucks that have been around for a while have learned that traveling wide ranges makes them more vulnerable. They also have the status to claim the best areas of land as their turf – and having the best turf means needing less of it.
Myth: A buck has its biggest rack around 3 or 4-years-old.
Fact: For deer in the wild, deer grow their largest antlers between 5 to 7-years-old.
