Default RE: Do bucks live with doe during the rut ?

During the rut I concentrate on a few areas.....and ALL of them are doe bedding areas.

I don't think bucks EVER bed with does (as a general rule).....or I don't think they do, here. It's not in their nature (reclusive) to be seen with a lot of other deer. Being locked down with a hot doe is not my idea of "bedding" with her.

**Edit: ONLY scenario I can think of to contradict what I said above is in the northern states where winter yarding occurs.
