RE: How far away should you set up from rubs?
Well a scrape is really just a sign a buck was there.
I've read many an article that suggest a scrape may never be touched by thedeer that started it. Does scrape too.,Ive seen it with my own eyes.
i would focus on terrain and location of your standa scrape is merely a hint that there are active deer using that trail or area.

Goodluck
rubs are on trees scrapes are on the ground!!
