Saw a buck trying to lock down a doe in a cornfield all morning yesterday. They must have been chasing throughout the night, as they more or less stayed in one place, laying in the field, for hours. So I think it's either here or pretty close (Southern Tier).

Well, we were driving Saturday night in Fairport when a very nice buck ran into the side of the car in front of us took out the mirror and smashed his driver's and rear doors. The buck did a flip in front of us, slid onto the shoulder of the road and limped off into a field. I think he was basically OK. Given his nonchalant attitude towards 4000 pound moving vehicles, I'd say he was thinking with the little head. If that helps answer your question!
Other than that, we had 4 doe in our front yard a couple days ago and 2 bucks were still together across the street that paid them no mind.

Dragged a nice eight pointer out of my woods for a guy last week, its neck was swollen like you would expect when they are in full rut. I also get a whiff of that spicy aroma once in a while while I walking around the woods.
Good Luck!!!!
