The funny thing is, he could end up having the last laugh. I did that to a hunting partner once (created a bunch of "fake" rubs with a pocket knife), and within days those "mock" rubs had attracted a lot of deer attention, and bucks began making real rubs to compliment mine. By "faking" deer sign, I had actually attracted deer to the spot so they could add their own sign.

Started running fake trails into saw palmetto flats and putting a bunch of rubs around a tree with absolutely no shooting lanes. Made sure to rub an old shirt or sock on every tree within 20 yards then I would make a massive fake scrape under the stand tree.

Those clowns quit following me and hunting those couple decoy spots everytime they hunted. They must have lost a quart of blood every time they hunted them though... Those saw palmetto are NASTY!
