That first part of your post hit the nail on the head. That's my least favorite part about ALL of his videos. I feel like he used to use the RTP drill and maybe he lost that sponsor so he doesn't promote it?

Scrapes I have had success with. Just didn't realize I was missing out with the Licking Branch Lol
I don’t put anything on them. Once a deer uses it the stage is set

I agree that sometimes the "I've been doing X for 20 years, I go to X amount of client properties a year, I use X tree stands & X clothing, etc." gets a little old, BUT... I've learned a lot more about hunting, habitat, scrapes, etc. from his videos than I have from people who put two or three feeders in a pen, set up a stand 20 yards away, and call it a day. I'm just saying ...

Originally posted by Low Fence View PostAll natural scrapes will have a limb above them that deer rub different glands on. Their own signature. That’s all it is, a note pad for them to leave a message on. Their hooves have glands as well and leave scent without peeing in them ( that’s how stomping works, it leaves a stop sign on the ground)

I will pay better attention. I knew about the glands. But I guess I never paid attention to the branches above. Thanks for the info!

Hey man, no ignorance here, just learning. If you have a deer skull, it will have some small pairs of holes, those are where the gland location is at. Forehead, nasal, orbital location. The orbital will have 2 holes, one for teat ducts, one for scent gland.Last edited by lovemylegacy; 07-10-2020, 10:03 AM.

But I will give him credit for the hanging vertical limb/vine addition. It seems to work even better than a natural low hanging horizontal limb. And don’t break off

Here’s a question for you guys that have experience with cameras over mock scrapes and scrapes in general. I’m hunting public land, and I have one area that produces during the rut where I know does live in the fall, a big thicket area. I’ve found rub lines leading to this thicket and around it, but I haven’t found any scrapes. There’s a good chance I’ve walked past some and didn’t know it but I’m thinking about setting up a mock scrape/camera nearby. What I want to know is would I be better off making a mock scrape between doe bedding and bucks beds/rubs? Or bring the beds in closer to where the does live, maybe down wind of their bedding area.
