Default Early Scrape

I found what I believe to be a scrape yesturday. Is it too early. It had the over hanging licking branch and had hoove prints in it. It is also on a deer trail. Could it be a scrape?

Yes, it was a scrape. I have found scrapes in the first week of September as well.

Alot of folks have been reporting scrapes already this year. I have found one or two in September in the past but never with any great frequency.

Found a Scrape Line today 9-10,no kidding. 5 or 6scrapes on an old brushogged roadway. Some had the licking branches worked, a couple rubs were nearby. The scrapes were'nt real serious - but no doubt what they were.

I put the camera (cuddeback) on the best one (was a good scrape last year too), and dripped some doe estrous scent in the licking branch and scrape.

It will be interesting to see what I get.

I have found 1 scrape thus far, I made 3 other mock scrapes near the area to see if I can draw a big boy in there.
