RE: Have you ever seen deer mating (breeding) in the wild while on a hunt?
Yup. I saw a nice 10 pt mount a little doe this year. They were about 40 yards away. I told gf later that I saw 'deer porn' this morning. 
Too bad I didn't have a camera with me! Of course, I got the 10pt about a month later at 13 yards so I guess it evens out.

I saw two deer pass my stand before daylight. I thought the first deer was behind me, my head was itching, so I scratched my head. The deer saw me somehow and spooked. It later started raining and I got out of my treestand and stillhunted towards the deer.
I saw the doe and an 8 pointer about 150 yards away. It was pouring rain, but I tried to make the shot and missed. A few minutes later the buck mounted the doe. It was the first time I have seen it happen in the wild. They ran off a little way; the buck stayed right with the doe. I shot again, and again I missed! I mouth grunted and the doe brought the buck my way. This time I did not miss the shot; the buck ran a short distance and collapsed.
A few days later I was driving up the four lane and glanced over towardds the edge of the woods and there was a buck mounting a doe! I could not believe I saw this happen twice, and in the span of a few days.

havent seen it while hunting but I did see it happen 2 years ago while driving the backroads from my house to my hunting spot. i was driving past a cut bean field and saw a doe being chased but a nice 8pt and 2 small bucks. i pulled over and watched them for a while right out in the open when the big buck finally chased the other 2 small ones off and mounted her. he ended up mounting her 3 times in all. the chase took place all over the huge field but the grand finale happened within 50yds of me. pretty cool

Funny you ask. I have never seen it until this year. I set and watched deer porn from a bluff this year. I watched a real nice 10 point mount a doe. Once he had finished, I shot him. It was the least I could do.
