Are wow, are you sure that a train didn't derail and hit that tree?

Finding a good rub sends my hunters heart racing, I have had good success hanging stands near fresh rubs here in WA. for whitetails.
A mix from Colorado and Michigan, none from this year yet.

Yea, this is Delaware.

kbetts,
Nice vintage hunting vehicle you have. :rolleyes:
Not as impressive as some of the ones on this thread, but this is the biggest rub I'm seen yet in my area. Hunting public land in Central PA, just spotted yesterday.
In the vicinity there are rubs on branches that are well over 6' high, we think he's standing on his hind legs to make them! Hope I get to see this buck sometime.

This post is like a two for one ... lots of good looking bows along with those dandy rubs ! Going out into the woods next week to scout for our late archery season coming up so hopefully I'll have some fresh rubs to add here ...
