Default Question - Winter Buck Sparring?

I got a couple Trail Cam pictures this week that kind of surprised me, and I'm curious if others have seen similar whitetail behavior?I figured if this isn't that unusual behavior - then you all on this forumn would probably be the ones to ask.

Anyhow - These pictures are from Mid-January (last week) - from two different spots on our property. The deer are coming to feed on Standing Corn, Turnips and Clover that they can still paw to get. The cameras are in the staging areas just off the plots in overgrown Apple Orchards. I leave the cameras up to see what bucks made it through - and to see when they drop their antlers.







To me this looks more like September Light-hearted Sparring - than Buck fights.
Anyone have any idea whats going on here? Is it common?
