Any time you find multiple scrapes in a relatively small area, you’ve found a place where a buck is spending a significant amount time, which improves your chances of seeing him.

Scrapes close to bedding areas might get hit at any time; a buck could get up for an afternoon meal, thrash the scrapes closest to his bed, and head out to feed and look for does.
