Most of the good fertile land is farmed and deer are restricted to poor mineral deficient ground on Doc or the back of farms so they will focus on any area that produces feed with a higher mineral content. Drainages / swamps that concentrate silt and minerals coming down from the hills above, high gully heads where rocks are cracked by frost in the winter are two areas. Proper peat bogs / moorland are sour and dont grow much and are not favoured by deer. The minerals are locked or bound by the low PH and cannot move to plants
