Rub???

Post by daniel white »

I found this on choccolocco yesterday, I found some smaller rubs and a scrape line on an old wagon road bed. And this tree was on the same line with what looked to me like gouge marks. What say y’all? Deer rub or maybe a bear scratching?? I think it’s a buck rub, but I wanted y’all expert advice. 😁😁

It’s an old mountain oak tree about the size of a 5 gallon bucket in diameter.

That’s what I thought too. Back when hogs got bad in hurtsboro and Union springs those rubbed trees like that were everywhere.

I was told boar hogs rub on a tree like that to calcify that plate in their sides so they don’t get cut fighting another boat hog.
