    Default You ain't gonna believe this...........

    I was turkey hunting this morning along a woods road at the Strut10 Ranch (it's actually the same stretch of road in my "Photo essay" post in the Turkey forum).

    I came walking past the tree where me & the boy spent most of our hunts last season. There's a good trail coming in out of a brushy bottom. There's also a dogwood tree that kinda overhangs the road at 23 yards under which there's always a scrape. Well.........as I walked past the dogwood this morning, I noticed that the scrape had been freshened last night or this morning!!!!

    What the.....................???????????????????

    Someone's feeling a bit froggy at the wrong time of the year.

    Deer use scrapes year round as signposts Don. Got a few community scrapes here we see activity at out of season, does use them too. Back about 6 or 7 years ago there was a pretty interesting article on scrape activity I believe in petersons bowhunting.

    I think you need to get a camera.
    Some people go to church and think about hunting. Others go hunting and think about God.

    yup yup....Williams is right..... Deer scrape year round
    Actually a buddy of mine about 2 or 3 weeks ago got pictures of a deer working a scrape. I will try and post them later.
