I have seen some scrapes but no rubs yet

haven't seen any rubs yet but the bigger bucks are starting to lose their velvet so i'm sure their are a couple out there. It seems like on our lease we don't see too many until later into bow season

I live in northeast PA and saw a bunch of rubs two weeks ago when I was home and then the past couple days I have been scouting by college in central PA and have been seeing a ton of rubs.

I hope they have started rubbing, the deer in are area usually rub like they are obsessive about it. I once counted 30 rubs in a 40 yard spot.

Yeah in one spot on state land i was scouting for the first time tuesday I could see 12 rubs from standing in one spot and im sure they are gonna still make a lot more of them

Here in southeast Ohio I have seen several rubs. Usually we don't see any scrapes until about mid October in our hunting areas.

Found a monster 11" rub last weekend but not much more than that, but almost ever buck should be rubbed off by now I haven't seen any fuzz heads in a week or so and all my cam pics are hard horned

I have not seen any as of yet up this way. Moose are starting to hit the bushes right now though, so the bucks will not be very long from now.. Up this way the moose will be hitting and rubbing first and then the bucks will.
