OK. Did it look like the stag in the pic I put the link to above ?

Somewhat, I can't tell if the stag has a bulge on its neck though.

The deer didn't have a bulge and looked as if it was kinda using a wallow. However there was no wallow so it was lying on its back/side kinda rubbing and kicking the tree like it was trying to get up.

I'm fairly certain that if it was indeed rubbing into the ground for whatever reason it would have sensed me and tried to escape as I made a fair amount of noise when I came around the corner.
