Do any of you guys know how to read buck rubs/scrapes/beds? and the difference between buck and doe beds? I've seen a couple beds and scrapes but how do I tell how big a buck is by a scrape or rub? Any info will help
Meh, the short and reliable answer is you can't tell for certain if a bed is from a buck or a doe. Generally a buck bed is much larger and often the bucks will crap right in the middle of it. Rubs, the same...can't tell size for certain based on a rub. Odds are that if it's a big rub on a big sprout or tree then it's a big buck but it's not 100% dependable.
Bucks crap in their beds and if it is one they use a lot it will smell. A bed with a rub by it almost guarantee s a more mature buck is living in the area. Scapes the size of the track in the scrape will tell you the size of the buck and if the scrape is worth hunting.
