:chuckle: Obviously the first pic is a joke Dlaw ;) I just put it up to get things rolling. If I had to guess I would say it was rubbed off by a logging truck, either that or the new world record deer,elk or moose. I sure wouldn't want to confront the cougar or bear that could do that either :yike:

Post by: gkowen on September 30, 2009, 12:34:13 PM: In the first pic, I figured you guys had hunted all day and the armpit made the bark shrivel. Rubs are an amazing thing. I once watched a 7x7 totally tear every branch off of a 6 inch diameter trunk tree. Then he decded to do the tree I was standing by. He was shocked to see the tree give birth to a human.

M_ray is like 3 feet tall so it's not that impressive of a rub... :chuckle:
