Easily the largest rubs I ever found were in cedar swamps on trees just like that. 8-)

You know those are made by short spikes and fork's. The big boys can't get any velvet off on those. :mrgreen:

Nice rub! I have found big sign post rubs on cedars that get hit every year. I have also found them on large sassafras trees.

They love those cedars. I’d have to say that some of the biggest rub I’ve seen were on cedars too.

Looks like that big aluminum buck track Dan machined is tricking people just like his beast stick rubs! :D

This is one of my favorite rubs not because of the diameter of the tree but the sheer aggressiveness put into it. That is one testosterone loaded buck. :o
