I always use mock scrapes during the pre rut and rut. I scrape out the ground with a nice size branch making sure I dont step in the scrape. I then hang a tarsal gland over the scrape and make sure I use some dominant buck urine to pour on the tarsel gland. Then to top it off I will use some tinks 69 in the scrape itself. It has worked for me quite often. It also alows you to stop the buck and be able to pick the perfect shot.
