I found the biggest rub I have ever came across anywhere in Indiana today! I'll be hunting this area for the next couple days.



I measured this one with a tape measure and the tree is 42" around in the center of the rubb! I can't wait to catch a glimpse of the buck who worked it over! That's a full size day pack beside it for reference!



So lets see some pictures of BIG rubs!

Here are a few we found yesterday while scouting for bear season. We only jumped one doe, but the sign was everywhere.

This tree was about 5" in diameter it is not huge but there were 3 rubs this size in a 4 yard circle with other smaller ones in between
 
Sorry for the large pictures before I will resize them from now on. I apologize to those I may have upset with dial up connections.

2 good rubs in this video.

Here's one I found

 

Man, oh man, you guys got some monsters rubbin' those trees!

nice!

i was gonna post ....but ya got me beat  
THAT SOME RUBBIN!!!!!

The biggest rub I've ever had in my area. Not big compared to what you guys have up but impressive anyway. It is now displayed in my home.

The lower part, just below the rubbing is 10 inches around to give you an idea of its size. And I watched the buck do this from about 10 yards away.

did you shoot him?????

You just gotta know B shot him...

   

Shawn....  

been after this guy for 3 years! he only shows at night based on my trail camera and i only have permission to hunt 5 acres of his home range.  

 

:eek:   wow    :eek:

I would have had to turn 90 degrees to shoot while he rubbed. And I was on the ground in a clutch of trees. I would have had to manuever my bow around one or two of the trees. I watched him from the corner of my eye.

When he finally stopped rubbing and moved on I thought I would get a shot, when he turned, then turned broadside with several small trees in the way. Then turned again. In retrospect I've thought of a few things I should've/could've done differently.

This was a nice one we found on public land last year...

                                                  Here's one from Ohio

This thread makes my neck swell    
 

Not the biggest, but he's consistent.

2 rubs from CT...

Good Lord! These can't be whitetails!? Elk?
