OK, guys and gals - a fake scrape is born… (2023 campaign begins soon!)

[Jim Boyd]

What urine did you use? Home brew?

No sir, I just took a leak in it the day I made and then again the day after.

Hoping a few deer peed in it also.

They may have left some scent on the licking branch also.

Oh ok, wasn’t sure what you put in it. May have to try this myself, neat!

 

[Jim Boyd]

Slow right now…

 

[Jim Boyd]

Had a camera issue but still watching.

Hope to see something soon!

Oh yeah, I did urinate in it again last Saturday.

Glad everything came out okay ? I’m running my own test. I had my girlfriend make a fake scrape to see if there is any difference. If so I will use her as bait!

Big boy has been visiting the scrape every 4 or 5 days but hasn't tended it, just smelling. Little fellows are hitting it multiple times daily and are digging it out deep. My camera is on a persimmon angled so it catches the scrape behind it. About what I expect for a couple more weeks until the first does cycle.

What’s the magic potion you used?

 

[Deernut3]

He's not the biggest on that property. There are two larger ones but they have gone off the cameras since rubbing out. I was getting the whole bachelor group on a mineral lick while they were in velvet.

What’s the magic potion you used?

Persimmon trees ! There are about six loaded trees around 50 yards apart. Bucks scrape close every year.

That is a really nice one!!!!!!!

 

[Jim Boyd]

I peed in it on Friday.

My brother killed an 8 pointer (his first buck ever!) about 75 yards from this fake scrape yesterday evening.

Thank you, sir.

I am stunned that the bucks have not started hitting it yet.

I noted that my brother took an 8 pt on Saturday very close to this stand - the day before that, my younger brother sat the same stand and saw 6-7 bucks… so I know the jokers are in the area.


Hopefully, more to come!

 

[Jim Boyd]

Maybe it is time to start seeing some interaction…

I freshened it up again today and used my stick to scrape it up a bit.

Used my stick to beat the branch a bit also.

 

[Jim Boyd]

Interesting.

He will be back, I would think.

He did not work the scrape, just sniffed his way through.
