When scouting on Aug, 31, I located about 10 fresh rubs on decent sized trees that formed a rubline from a thick bottom of willows (leading to a pond), to a single bed on the side of a oak ridge. If I can get in position while it is still dark, do you think this is a good spot, or should I ignore the sign and continue to hunt feeding patterns the first few days. The season starts on Oct 12, and I'm undecided what I want to do opening morning. I have not been in the area since Aug 31, for fear of contaminating the area. Please suggest what you would do in my situation. Thanks.
