We have a couple cedar swamps and trails are everywhere, including some rubs when the time comes. Thanks for the tip Deerme, I'll look more closely in these areas to locate some nice scrapes this year to hunt around.
Also, where I hunt, deer population is low, probably lowest in NYS. Do you think that because of the lack of competition between bucks, they may not "make" as much sign identifying territory, etc...? I read that in most recent issue of Dand D Hunter if anyone saw the article by RG Bernier.
