As seasons change so does the favored food. In Kansas Alfalfa, Milo and Soybeans are hot during the Sep-Oct. Next they start hitting corn and after a heavy freeze winter wheat is the only green forage left and deer eat the heck out of it. There's also hunting pressure and the quality of security cover changes as the leaves fall.

There is a good chunk of private land less than a mile from where i hunt that gets zero hunting pressure. During gun season the deer pile onto that property and stay there during daylight hours until the shooting stops. The place where I hunt goes from deer paradise to a waste land, the deer know where to go to stat safe.
