While out hunting yesterday, I found a scrape that had recently been freshened . It was being used heavily during the rut, but that's been over for, oh, about a month or so by now. I mean, here in MO, the bucks will start loosing their antlers like any day now.....It had fresh tracks, I could see where he had scraped the dirt, all fresh, and I smelled it before I saw it.
Doesn't this seem awfully late in the year?
