Yep, and sometimes for a long while. I've seen 'em use 'em for several years. Probably more, if I paid attention. Does visit them, too, if not more often than the bucks. And they love to lick the branches. Be out there enough, you'll see it.  

I must add that if you find a very large scrape, torn all to heck, with large rubs in the vicinity and/or vectored to a travel route for a large buck, that's a nice one to consider thinking about. I don't hunt over 'em too directly, but to intercept on the way in or out, or another spot you know they'll pass...nice to know they are there.

Yep, Last week I watch two bucks use the same scrape within an hour of one another and a third one used it the night before.  Like Stu said, I don't hunt over large scrapes but the travel routes to them. dino

And you will know the biggest buck using it because he will come in like he owns the place. Lesser bucks usually sneak in or circle down wind first.
