on my new property. I went exploring yesterday,on the property I just bought. I found this monster rub and scrape on a ridge leading to the CRP field. There were also some big beds on top of this ridge, 100 yards or so above the rub. The tree in the pic is about 10" in diameter. I think the deer killed the broken tree by rubbing the bark off of itover the years. The scrape is the size of my kitchen table. I have never seen anything like this hunting before.
Hurry,, and dump some corn and put a camera on it, and get a pic of him before he drops his antlers.. If he's around close by still, he will come in and give you a pic.. Nice big rub there.

I had already setup my 2 trail cams, before I found the rub and I didn't have time to go back and move one. Next time I am there I am putting one on it for sure.
Not allowed to put bait or minerals out in IL. Not even in the offseason. They are afraid it would help spread CWD by the close contact of the animals on the bait.
that is one big dude you got leaving all that evidence there,good luck getting him.I would sure like to see what that deer looks like that amazes me............Ted
