I hope you get him man! That's an awesome sign, I found a rub like that three years ago on our neighbors property and it was made by a 170 class buck!

TBone, I'm not good at guessing how a rack could score,but he's a good one for sure.How did the one in your profile scored? That's a beauty,congrats.

That is a heck of a rub, and that track in the scrape looks big too!!!

Go get him and tell us a story... I am waiting...

Drifter- I never had him officially scored but I would guess around 145-150. He was a huge bodied deer and a really mature animal. His rack was icing on the cake, I'm hoping to shoot his dad or brother this year. I shot him from a farm that had 11 scrapes within 100 yards of eachother and this year it's the same story, I just hope something comes down the same trail because you can bet I'll be in the same tree! Good luck with your buck!
