    I was so glad I went back here and found this! A pretty cool story behind it, literally!

    Jeff nailed it! I grunted my buck in across a swamp, he stopped here for a minute to make this rub, I watched him make it, I grunted again and he came right to me!

    If you lool to the left of the tree that the rub is in, the first tree leaning away from my bow limb is the tree I was sitting in. Off the right side, the dark tree leaning in thats just above the beaver balls on my string is where he was standing when I put the arrow thru him! It was pretty awesome to go back there and hang out for a bit!

    Great Info and story Joe, I figured there was a story behind all of these pics!! In 2007 when I shot my 140" buck I tried finding the the bush that my buck beat the hell out of after I rattled but to no avail could I find It. I wanted to do the same thing you did and take pictures of It and show It on here being It was part of the hunt.
