Although thistends to work best during pre-rutsituations, it can provide resultsright through the rut as bucks travelin search of receptive does andwork scrapes along the way.Scrapes vs. RubsThe first consideration is ofcourse whether or not your huntingarea holds any sizable bucksto begin w ith.By sizable we donʼtmean large antlers. Simply put wemean anything you would shootthat meets your own standards accordingto your own personal codeof ethics. For some a forkhorn is atrue trophy. For others nothing lessthan a record book is suitable. Youhunt according to your ability andthe deer in your hunting area harvestingthose which you considerCorner of Rt. 5 & 53Elizabeth, WV304-275-3574sizable or suitable for shooting.Scrapes will work on all deerbut predominantly work better onlarger Closeouts class older On deer that havelaid 1999 claim Models to one particular area. Ascrape is considered a calling cardmuch like a rub on a tree but is abit more in-depth once you take acloser look. When a buck worksthe ground he is leaving a visualsign that he considers this area his,much like a rub. You also find thatthey leave their scent in the scrapeas they do when making a rub viatheir pre-orbital glands. So how doscrapes and rubs differ? For one itis seldom that rub will be workedagain later in the year. A certaintree may be rubbed in consecutiveyears but seldom is it ever workedagain during that same year. Not sowhen speaking in terms of scrapes.Although not all scrapes are reworked,a percentage of them arevisited throughout the season andfreshened when needed. You willalso find a licking branch above ascrape where the deer has chewedthe end of a small branch andworked his pre-orbital glands aswell as the glands found around histear ducts to leave an added scent.This is where scrapes and rubs differthe most besides the fact of revisitationon occasion.continue to the next pageHunt Safely This SeasonHunting 2006 ~ Page 4BOWTECHDIAMONDROSSBROWNINGBOW-LISTICARCHERY SHOPCOMPLETE BOW SERVICEBOW & HUNTING ACCESSORIESYOUTH BOWS•CUSTOM ARROWS15105 MacCorkle Av.

Finding A ScrapeScouting and finding a scrapeor scrape line is a definite plus. Iwould much rather find a scrapeor two than a rubline. Many timesyou find that rubs were a relief forpent up aggression due to growingtestosterone in the buck while thescrapes are a definite sign that abuck likes what he has seen in thearea. Scrapes are normally found onhigher ground that is dry enough tohold scent and wont be washed outin the even it rains heavily. Areasthat repeatedly encounter boggy orswamp-like conditions hold lessscrapes than the edges of that samearea where the ground is slightlyelevated. Any edge of a field, especiallythose that contain row cropsA nice Ohio 9 point was baggedby Josh Schultheis.
