I am in WI, and hunt in northern WI. and one of my friends dad "says" that he creates his own scrapes on the ground with his boots and pees on it himself and has seen bucks check it several times, mostly small ones, but i do happen to know that last year dropped a huge 8 point, one of the nicest 8's i have ever seen, don't know if it had anything to do with the scrape though
