Deer movement articles and analysis
Why, when and where deer move. These are questions we as deer hunters are always asking ourselves as we plan our next hunts. One thing we’ve been trying to do here at Quiver is to help answer those questions, or at least equip hunters with more knowledge to unpack things when planning future hunts.
We’ve done several studies with Quiver data to try and answer some of these key questions. We look at all the data in aggregate and anonymously to see if we can tease out any interesting insights on deer movement. Below is a collection of these studies and also a look at some of the more popular theories on why deer move.
