Disappointed......wolves???

[boneaddict]

I went back into the deep country looking for big bucks, where I normally see 100 deer a day, 20-30 bucks, I saw 4 deer total in three  days and one two point.    Two piles of older wolf crap.   I wonder if its started.....or wonder if there could be other factors such as a greener midrange???  I saw more deer in the outskirts of Leavenworth at the bottom of Blewitt than I did the whole time I was back there.   I usually pass through a fawning area with lots of critters.  Not one deer bed, almost zero sign.   NOT impressed.

That is not good news.  You would think that the bigger bucks would be up there if there was decent feed.  I fear wolves and a pretty strong winter.

I don't think some of the bucks are making it to traditional summer ranges this year or last but seems like something else is going on in that country for sure

Well no deer/elk the wolves will probably move on. 
Then again they might find backpackers are easy pickings.   

Nothing more exciting than hearing wolves howling when hiking back to base camp in the dark and only 6 arrows in the quiver.     been there hiked faster

I saw very few bucks in the high country. I used to see 50 deer a day, including 20 bucks. Out of 4 days up scouting this year, I've only seen 5 deer in the high country. Most of the deer I've seen have been down near the towns as well...

If I were a deer in wolf country,,,I'd hang around towns, lowland farms too!

I can't wait until the wolves follow the deer and elk down to town and start hunting them in people's yards!! That should knock the blinders off a lot of the idiots and the less informed!

better yet when the deer leave again from pressure, and the wolves start taking other prey aka kitty and poochie

I hope they take a few of there suburu's as well.
