Checked my cams in kettle falls yesterday
 looks like it's started to heat up about the 16th fighting on cam then it looks like they started running the does on the 20th non stop day an night then only pics of small bucks an yearlings the 23rd

So they are locked down on does now and will be on the hunt again on Thursday morning right at first light......right? :tup: :chuckle:

I had a small 4pt mounting a doe under my stand this morning so appears there are still some does in estrus. 👍🏻
No shooters yet. Been sitting all day very patiently borderline freezing but it's warmed up to around 28 ish. I should make it all day.

Bucks still grouped up with does in the Klickitat. Rut is still on in some phase. Anyone else hunting out there seeing activity?

I've seen 4 or 5 different bucks chasing does this week around gmu 127. Seems like they're rutting pretty hard

saw a couple bucks chasing in 124 this weekend and a really nice one in 121, like a 170" whitetail. He walked across the road on us  :chuckle:
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

Starting on the 26th I saw mule deer chasing and mounting does, nothing before that, bucks could care less about the does, after the 26th it started getting better.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.
