this year was my first time making a mock scrape. I found a smaller 2-3" dia treenear my standand raked the bark off w/ a hoethen i made about a 3-4' scrape next to its base. then i put a scent dripper above the scrape on a branch as high as i could reach. i made the scrape last tuesday and i hunted this past sat. and sun. sunday it drew in a 2.5 year old basket 8pt. 1hr. after sunrise.he started smelling around, licking the tree and rubbing it. then left his scent. perfect heart shot. i wish i had a camera. it wasreallyenjoyableto watch that.
