Telling the difference bt a button buck and a doe

Buddy of mine is hunting this weekend for the first time

doesnt want to shoot a button buck

i told him the best ways to tell the difference are:

button bucks have a flat spot on their head or little bumps whereas a doe's head is usually rounded

a button buck is usually more active (jumping/running around, etc...) than a doe, which usually is just moving around slower

does are usually with other does whereas a button buck is more willing to risk running into a field on its own

older does have a rounder body type usually


any other tips i should give him?

ill probably just hunt with him to make sure he doesnt kill a button buck, but tips would be appreciated
