    Scrape line

    Finally got to make a trip to the lease last Tuesday-Thursday. I found scrape line on Thursday morning & decided to hunt it that evening. I had no cameras up due to loosing them in the flood. So I had no idea what to be expecting. 3:30 I catch a good shooter at 50yrds, he’s a 9 point real tall with a crab claw on his left side main beam. He comes in to 20yrds, starts making a scrape & gives me a broad side shot. I have no idea what happened but I shot about 8” low barely clipping his far side leg. He just shook his leg, looked around & walked off the way he came in.

    Do y’all think this effect his routine? This area was absolutely torn up with tree rubs & scrapes. It’s gonna be about 2 weeks before I can make it back out there to hunt again. I sure would like to get him.

    Sounds like he wasn't spooked. You should be good. From my experience bucks that make a prominent scrape line tend to work it all season.

        Sounds like you need to learn how to shoot

        hehehe...I was sick for you, when Amber told me about your misadventure. If he didn't bust out of there, I bet he just wondered what happened, and will be back to work his scrapes I want to see pics of him when you get him!

          That was only part of the misadventure!! When I went to nock another arrow then blades was already deploy on that head, on the other head the blades fell out earlier that morning (I want be shooting Rage Trypans again for sure!!). After sitting there for about an hour I got down & got the arrow in shot at him. Got back in the stand, getting situated the sit on the climber slipped, my bow fell out othe holder & hit the ground. But if all that didn’t happen I would have a story.
