Last week a nice buck was chasing a doe, curling his lip sniffing. Other deer, bucks included would get out of his way when he trotted by. He sure chased a doe hard, then he was gone. I bet that doe was in heat, he couldn't help but chase her. Didn't see him until he walked into range a couple days later. Hope he caught that doe, as we took him home. Neck swollen, walked like an old feller....Did see quite a few smaller bucks pushing each other around, nothing to violent.
