No, it's just what they do this time of year. They are always establishing and maitaining a pecking order, and when they have hard antler that's what they use.

No, the rut is not here yet, they are far from being in rut. they do that this time of the year, they start out sparign then as october goes along the sparing should get a little more aggressive.

If heard that if you do some slight tinkling round with the rattling bag or horns this time of year the deer (does Bucks) will come to check it out kind like watching pre - season football games. to see see whos going to have the better team. Don't know but maybe someone as tried it and it worked for them.
