Nobody?
Oh well, I'm going back out for the afternoon, I was asking about the late rut because I'm wondering if I oughtta use doe in heat or not. Guess for this afternoon its "not". ;)
Later.

They say the 2nd rut starts 28 days after the first. I too found a new rub about a week ago in one of my spots. Nice rub, big tree and high on the tree! Good luck!

i believe here in illinois most rubs this late in the year are bucks marking what they believe to be making their territory. i can think of no other reason unless they are trying to find some more does in the third rut.

I found a new rub on a Cedar tree yesterday you couldn't get both hands around. Found a couple scrapes as well they were still hitting.
