a few years back I had an older 8 point chaseing a doe around my tree and she finily stopped to give him a ride 5 yards from my tree. While all this was taking place there were 3 smaller bucks watching and then a nice 9 point came into the area but stayed across the creek 30 yards or so. He was pissed and started rubbing everything next to him. Grunting and carring on like he was ready for a fight but remained on the other side of the creek. When the buck was finished the doe walked off and all the buck followed but the 9 point went a different way.

That's cool. I'm guessing that seeing this is a pretty rare event. I've certainly never seen it, and spend some time in the woods, though not as much as you do. I have seen the 'foreplay' though.

Did you notice there are now women on this board? Actually, I'm married and know all about the mating dance. Although, I will admit to never watching it actually being performed by an animal.
My husband shot a buck right after the dismount and the meat was great if you had the guts to eat it after smelling it cook all day. I ended up banning any cooking of that buck from my house and he had to give the meat away to my little brother whose theory on fine cuisine is "if the mold scrapes off easily its still edible" *gags*.Cherity *deep sigh* it was fun but now I must turn the computer over to the man of the house. Happy hunting people.

I actually saw it from about 300 yds.I had been hunting for 4 days and was getting kinda bummed not seeing anything so I let him have his fun you know all about increasing the deer pop. He was a small buck had one side broke off. Anyway just a piece of advice DO NOT SHOOT A BUCK after he does this, worst smelling/tasting deer I ever had

Cherity, I want to welcome you and Doug to the forum. Cherity; I'm wondering when the liberials and going to hammer us for talking deer at ADD ? LOL The only way I would take a big buck after COPPULATING is if he is big, 140"+ , I was at a CDM meeting last year and the quest speeker asked if anyone had seen deer mate. I was the only one who had out of the 150 seasoned hunters in the room. He asked me what happened after the buck dismounted , I didn't think about it and said he just walked off following the doe with about 4 bucks in toe. The speeker said; He has seen it twice and both time the doe shook like a dog just coming out of the water. The reason was to get the sperm moving, a natural instink.

Doug, what;s the hunting like out your way ? What do you hunt ? Are you a bow hunter also? ML and shot gun or just rifle ? You'll find that there are some very knowledgable guys in here who have racked up allot of time in the field along with their stats of kills. So feel free to add in put or ask questions. I'm out of here, Got to play soccer dad for the afternoon.

The hunting is pretty good .Its hard to find private land though cuz they either lease it to the rich docs or someone has trespassed and messed it up for everyone.I use shotgun for birds and a rifle for deer.Trying a bow out this year need some kinda challange rifle has gotten way to easy lol

"Cherity, I want to welcome you and Doug to the forum. Cherity; I'm wondering when the liberials and going to hammer us for talking deer at ADD" Dave the quicker you learn the facts of the life the happier and more fulfilling your life will be. I'll give you a short tip that has never let me down.
It doesn't matter where you go or who your with there will always be a CRY BABY in the group. I find they are most insulted when you refuse to rise to the bait or better yet even respond to them. I love laughing at liberals over a nice hot cup of coffee in the morning. Reminds me that God does indeed have a sense of humor. ;D

OPS Doug didn't make a blank post I accidently posted under his name and it lost all its meaning. So, I had to just modify and delete everything I wrote lol.
I have never seen your id reported so your waves must be small or well concealed. ;D
Don't make waves in the teen section nor the household tips and hints section and I won't have to drop my "hammer" on you. lol Actually, my practice is to contact via pm asking you do edit your posts, if you refuse then I get cranky with you. I think we already have too many hard *** mods and admins in the other forum we don't need another.

Im not sure what your talking about. But, apparantly you haven't been watching the right threads lately. there is one that is quite interesting where we are getting together pictures of ADD men and are going to sale a calendar. Andrew is supposed to pose in a thong thats the shoes I mean.
I have a lot of threads we discuss things in but most are linked to kids and education and nursing. You'll have to send me some links sometime and I'll see what I can get started sometimes you just have to know the right people.
