Default is this from 1 buck?

i have found about 50 diffrent scrapes and 30 diff rubs going in basiclly a straight line for almost a mile, than half a mile away and way up a mountain i found more rubs on basiclly the same size trees, is this one domiant buck going crasy, or can it be more than one?... how many rubs does 1 buck typically do, cause normally i only find 3 or 4 rubs in one area.

Wow, that's a lot, but it could be from 1 buck.....But then again, it could be from multiple bucks.....Look for tracks, and see if there are any distinguishing marks...Also, if the rubs are typically on the same kind of tree, ie. pine, then it could be from a single buck. It's really hard to tell, but it does sound like a pattern.

well its weird, one tree could be a big 10 inch wide tree, than 5 feet away a little twig, i think its from 1 deer cause there all really close to each other and in a straight line.

Not likely the same buck.
If this is a major travel route in mountainous terrain, where the deer travel greater distance for food. Chances are that a bunch of bucks are trying to out do each other every time they walk down this trail. Your season sounds promising, I'd say.

If it helps......

In one sitting, last year, I saw 4 different bucks and a button head work the SAME SCRAPE.

I guess you're more confused, now......

Your right Sb. Bucks will use the same rubs and scrapes. I have seen it many time in my woods.
