Title: Loads of scrapes, no bucks
Post by: bear bowman on October 25, 2015, 02:08:00 PM
I'm seeing plenty of deer, all doe. I took a little walk yesterday and lost count of all the scrapes.
What's everyone else seeing?

Found a hot spot but Boom stick season starts Saturday. Two fresh scrapes just yards from each other with loads of fresh sign. I have four days pending good weather to try to make it produce.

Lots of scrapes.  A few rubs.  No deer except when I hunt near Valley Forge.  Ive seen zero deer in Michaux State Forest and Allegheny Natl Forest.

I have seen some lightly attended scrapes, and the only buck I have seen was a very young spike.

If I was seeing a lot of does right now, I'd be pretty excited for the next few weeks. Stay with the does and the bucks will be snooping around very shortly!!

Getting needed rain here! Even though I hate rain, cause I have to work in it!

If I could hunt this week, Friday looks good. If you have a good line of scrapes and rubs, near the back door of a bedding area, with right wind, yep I'd be there!
