Massive rubs found!!!

[poconobowhunter]

i found a couple of massive rubs in my hunting area. one looks a week old. they are on pine trees that are 10+ inches. the late archery season starts soon and was wondering if it is too late to hunt these rubs? the rut is almost over but the post rut is pretty good here. i hunt swamps and thick mountain larrel there are no food plots here to hunt. any advise?

i might try to sit there if i was you, even it the buck doesnt go to that tree to rub again... he may walk past if it's on his routine

While scouting some public I found rubs on some mature oaks that I can bairly reach around. It was pretty big!!

Concentrate around the developments, and you may find some of the late rut action. I saw a ton of rubs at 16M and Mud Run Road, but hardly any deer let alone shots heard.
Nothing from Manzenodo, Mt Allen, or Easton Anglers on Saturday, one shot at mud run road, and zero at 16M 12pm to 4pm.

Elk or Moose in the area?

If you study the pic, the brow tines are spaced normally on a mature deer and the buck has a high rack. The marks above the two brow tines are from the deer's tips as he was rubbing downwards. Mature buck with a big attitude, my guess is he just got his butt whooped and that was the tree he chose to take it out on.

Thats freakin amazing, I saw pictures of a telephone pole that was rubbed like crazy once but that right there is awesome. He was pissed.
