Default EARLY SCRAPING ACTIVITY!!!

I just got in from my folks farm and got the last of our fall food plots put in today. While discing one of them up I noticed under a cedar tree along the edge that there were 3 large bare spots under some of the limbs. I got off and took a closer look to discover that they were scrapes that had been recently pawed out. It was no surprise to see scrapes in this spot because they seem to scrape under this same particular tree every season but this is the earliest I've seen them at this location. Anyway its got me pumped up a little more now......

9 times out of 10 it is 1 1/2 doing the scraping. The big boys know when the to start. The little get excited early in the season. They do not know what to do, lol

That makes good sense because we are going on our 4th year I think in the county I hunt in with the new 4pt. restriction and because of this we are seeing more 1.5 and 2.5 year old bucks than ever before.
