I think they find caves somewhere near my place and hangout playing poker and drinking hard apple cider...

Wow. Never thought about the rut killing off good bucks. Maybe that's why I never see bigguns...haha

I have heard of cases of bucks running themselves to death during the rut. They go none stop until the lack of food and rest wears them down.
