So is it abnormal for bucks to be chasing does this early?? I was sitting on my deck shooting a few arrows and saw some deer out in the field. Grabbed my binoculars and sat to watch. 8 bucks and 3 does were just mingling and eating until a few of the bucks started sparring. Before you know it they were chasing the does around. Not hard core like the rut but still pretty cool!! Normal??
Yep, for the same reason you'll see scrapes right now if you start looking.
