Some folk class any male of the deer species a buck or a stag which in the sense of the word is true, when I refer to a buck or a stag I mean fully mature deer in there prime not prickets or yearlings also this lamping vs daytime argument IMO an educated deer is just that be it day or night, to refer to them as easier gives the wrong impression they can be EASIER day and night depending on a few factors. To name a few factors.. time of year, ground, how often there ran, age and condition, distance of the slip.
