There are many signs to watch for when looking for deer.  Deer tracks can often give a person an idea of how big the deer are.  Scrapes, when a buck scrapes the ground with his hooves, is a sure sign that there is a buck close by.  Rubs are an important sign as well.  A rub is when a buck rubs his antlers on low branches or tree trunks to remove the velvet.  Rubs also indicate the size of a bucks spread.
