I know it sounds like an easy answer, sparring, exercise, hormones. When you cut up the neck on a mature buck it's thick as a calf. In summer they look like large doe confused2

Only problem with that is you'll walk around peeing on your hocks and stinky for about a couple of weeks during the holidays and nobody will want to be around you.

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

If nobody wants to be around you during the holidays then you get to spend that much more time in the woods...

Looking at the picture STX just posted, you think bucks prefer to chase the younger ladies first? Do the 1.5 and 2.5 does get all the early attention, or do "Older Does Make Beautiful Lovers"?

Or maybe bucks prefer the "I'll take it where I can get it" approach?

If I was limited to ~2 months out of the year I might go with the latter too.

Ya know, deer probably aren't as superficial as us so I would think they would go for the older ladies with the experience verses playing games with a younger gals.

Who am I kidding, they probably go for the first piece they come across haha!!

Doe's are like most females of all species. When they feel the need they go looking for the opposite sex. In deer that's only one time a year. Kinda like some women I know. rolleyes

a lack of pootang for the past 6-8 months.
gland action, and in nature, it makes him appear more studly and attract the females.
