Bulls starting to rub
« on: August 11, 2013, 08:07:00 PM »
This morning I watched several cows and calves, a two point, and a smallish 5x5. When the 5x5 last looked at me his antlers looked really white. Later I took the dogs for a walk where he came from and they were eating something. At first I thought it was a long dead varmint, but then realized it was rubbed off velvet. Pretty neat to see.

Checked the cams this weekend and had a video of a spike rubbing and a few pics of two other bull with small strips of velvet hanging and splits in the velvet.
