I don't know what the rumors are, but here in southern MD, I'm finding hot scrapes all over the place...and I mean hot. Yesterday I found several in a small area that were wet and had been worked down through the soil to hard bed. Hoofprints and everything. I wasn't finding these things (at least in this area) 2 weeks ago. I'm don't think the rut's over. It was my understanding that fresh hot scrapes indicated being in the rut.
