Southern Lake County, IL
Saw a doe with hoof or rack marks raking down her flanks & back. She was VERY skittish. Seemed like she was just "worked over". I witnessed this at a distance of 10 yards.
She still had a yearling with her so I don't think that she's "ready" yet, but the buck seemed to be ready.
