DH, I only use what learned last year as a starting point for scouting this year. The deer that made last years rubs may be be with us anymore.
If i' m hunting the woods I only hunt the hot spots and never the same stand over and over again. Set up numerous stands and keep the pressure down as long as you can. If the deer feel the pressure they will change their habits to stay safe.

good luck and scout as much as you can
