The one group i've been seeing most often is a mature buck about 160-170 and two smaller bucks one about 130 and the other just a little bigger about 135ish. When they feed in the bean field of an evening there are a few 1.5 year olds and another small buck maybe 2.5 yo. But the group of three bigger bucks will move away from the smaller group when they start to feed into thier area. If the smaller bucks don't give them space the larger bucks will exit the field early.
We see all ages groups from 1.5 to 5.5 years old bedding/traveling together. It is more common to see 2.5 year olds and up together though. We do see loner 4.5 year old and older... but the majority that we have seen bed/travel with at least one other buck. Usually the older buck is traveling with a 3.5 year old. It is more common to see 1.5 year olds bed/travel with 1.5 year olds. We sometimes see young does ( fawn the year before ) bed/traveling with different bachelor groups. Usually just one doe per group. Tim
