RE: Rubs and Scrapes...
I was hanging stands in Hancock county this past weekend and saw a 1 in. tree broke off at chin level and shredded. It had velvet all over underneath it. 25 yards away on the edge of a bean field there were 3 2x2 scrapes that had been recently worked. You could see the cuts in the ground from the hooves. First time I've ever seen that type of sign this early, and the first I've ever seen a run with velvet underneath. I wish I would have had the camera.
