RE: Pa pre-rut activity?
I saw a big boy make a scrape on Tuesday with a smaller buck hanging around to check it out once he was done. They were also bumping does and harassing them a little. I've also heard some guys hearing sparring and fighting and saw 2 1.5 year olds straight up brawling about 2 weeks ago. On the other hand, I too have seen very few new rubs this year.
