Hey, SouthArk...I'm seeing a lot of rubs at my place in Conway County. They started out slow....there were very few in mid- Sept....but when I went back last weekend there were lots of fresh ones. May be that you're just lagging behind a bit. Some folks dont think the temperatures have much to do with stimulating rubbing and scraping activity, but I'm not so sure about that based on my own experiences.
Good luck!

Hey scrider1 ain't it great to be from the south?maybe we won't get any visitors over here! neo confederates we are!
yeah i think weather plays a big role. i wasn't seeing any deer for a while there. but last night i returning home and saw bunches. from camden to hot springs . almost hit a few. this cool weather has them on the move. i just hope it lasts through next weekend.
don't kill them all in conway county.

How about this weather, its got to help the deer movement I hope anyway becouse I did not do any good last weekend. I hope we have a colder winter than we had last year.
Good luck and have safe fun>>>>>>>>>>--------------------->
