Hi! I’m Robert Rogers on behalf of expertvillage.com. In this clip we are going to be talking about
some scrapes. While scouting earlier, we came across a nice scrape here from a buck obviously.
Scrapes happen when bucks are losing their velvet. Velvet is a thin layer of skin underneath
or on top of their horns. What they do is scrape that velvet off, it itches a little
bit and that is how you get a nice clean rack or antlers. Here you can see deer came in,
rubbed his antlers right here. Sometimes we look a little bit higher depending on the
height of the deer or how big he is. Looks like maybe you can never tell for sure but
I would say from the size of the scrape it is probably a younger deer. It’s a good
location to be hunting right around here. Obviously there are some bucks around.
