    This weekend I found new rubs and scrapes opening up. Things are gearing up here in Ky. Only saw does this weekend, but the new activity shows the bucks are starting to stir. All this new sign is within 25 yards of one of my stands. I'll be putting in longer hours there next weekend in the hopes I catch one on his feet in the daytime.

    Heck of a rub, there's a big boy roaming there. Best of luck putting an arrow through him!

    Same thing here, lots of rubs, scrapes are a bit on the rare side yet. I found this rub last week:

    I'm going to hunt that spot hard this coming weekend. I'll hang a cam over that scrape. If I don't arrow him hopefully I'll get a pic of him.
