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.
