I’m an adult-onset hunter and just found my first real good rub tonight. It’s cool seeing those signs in real life and knowing you’re on the right track.
Good luck this year!!
Don’t trust one rub by itself. Find a run line through the woods…then find yourself a pinch point along that line. Good luck.
@@MikeFree22 Thanks for the tip! I've found a couple of these series of rubs through the woods, how can you tell if they are fresh or not?
@@MikeJones-vb1methis type of year a fresh rub should be bright still. An old rub will usually have some darkness to it. Maybe more bark growing over it some. Also look at the ground around the tree. Look for fresh bark. If barks on top of the leaves you know the rubs are from at least after the leaves fell last year.
@@MikeJones-vb1me Super old rubs will be dry and faded looking…fresh rubs will look much more vibrant like you just scraped the tree with a pocket knife. Fresh rubs will likely have bark shavings at the base of the tree or sapling. I personally avoid touching them as well. Mature bucks are “mostly” hitting these rubs at night….on their way to food or back to bed. I prefer hunting scrapes over rubs…but it can be done.
It would have been helpful to go out into the woods and video tapped what a rub and a scrape looks like for those new to hunting.
thankyou so much
Scrapes are great, but they're not all the same. Some are used consistently and others are almost a one and done
Absolutely! I have one scrape that’s opened yr round and I have a bunch that are hit once and never again ! There better when there’s several big tracks in them!
I LOVVVVE communal scrapes.
You know, the hidden ones the size of a school bus.
@@FISHUNTREECOUNTRY that’s awesome, mines the size of a basketball but it’s there every year and it gets used usually a nice set of tracks in it in late October

Great advice!!!!
