prerut activity?

Anyone seeing any pre rut activity ? Specially scrapes?

Not much that I have seen but I am also hunting Cherokee and is all new to me. I have yet to find a scrape or rub with a few days in the woods the past week. I will hit it again on Thurs and will check a few mock scrapes that I made after drinking too much water.

i noticed a bunch of scrapes had popped up on one our leases in about a weeks time , put a camera over one saturday afternoon while i had a buddys son on the juvi hunt. i checked the card yesterday afternoon when i took my climber to the area and had 3 different bucks in the scrape between 6:30 a.m. and 7:30 a.m.

Can you guess where im heading to this morning?

Scrapes and rubs showing up everywhere on my lease. Had a scrape show up mid day between morning and afternoon hunt sat. It's turning on here.

Scrapes showed up on my farm last week in Rutherford county.

The rut in my area is one of the earliest in the state (other than the Nashville Basin and north-central TN), so scrapes exploded in my area a couple of weeks ago (starting around Oct. 9th).

Bachelor groups broke up about a week ago.
