Default RE: Question for Scrape experts

well, we have one area which is a 15-20 acre stand of white oaks/thick junk that has a makeshift road that runs one border and then loops through the center. I walked this road which in total is about 400 yards long, and I counted +/- 30 scrapes which ranged from 1-4 feet across which were all free of debris. Then in another area, they were just randomly scattered (but a lot). I hunted the first area all day saturday and only say 2 does, a yearling doe, and a button. On the other hand, my dad hunted the second area and saw 8 bucks (6 of which were 8 points or better) and a ton of does. I was fairly discouraged after this. Would you continue to hunt the first area, or switch to hunting the second place.
