I have trail cam pic of a 7 pointer about 7-8 years ago that was slick horned on August 15th.....I have found several rubs around this time of year as well...
Usually not til the end of August. My SC club is in the "Low Country" and a Velvet Buck is much desired .......even there it's the last week of August .........
Too bad sanity has finally prevailed and I have that out of my system. I don't plan to sit a stand til 9-15-07...........
opening day for me. I don't use trail cameras (I'm too cheap to buy them) and I know exactly where I'm going on the opener but I usually don't see rubs until at least Sep on my place but I'm sure they are starting to get itchy on the head gear!!!!
