It's a deer highway around here right now. This all day rain has got them really moving. I've counted 17 deer today between those in my yard and those that are wandering around the roads

PolarBear · « **Reply #1 on:** October 13, 2012, 04:53:51 PM »

I had 8 in my yard today. All does and fawns though.

Well we are hunting but haven't seen a deer all day. Maybe we need to be hunting in your backyard.

duckmen1 · « **Reply #5 on:** October 13, 2012, 05:01:09 PM »

we've been in the woods for a week and haven't been on deer but one day. Trying to get a kid a doe for his first deer with the special draw tag.
hopefully luck will change
haven't seen it this bad ever

8 deer bedded by house. 3 are legal bucks

PolarBear · « **Reply #14 on:** October 13, 2012, 06:57:18 PM »

I talked with my buddy in Republic an hour or so ago and he had 17 whitetails in his pasture this evening. 5 were bucks and one a bruiser. Now he just has to keep the yayhoos from shooting at them from the highway.

How do you know they didn't see them and just pass on by because they knew it was private property?

Not saying this is the case, but from what I've seen, when guys see legal animals on private property they usually stop and at least look. Some may just slow down, some a quick stop, some guys get out binoculars, some will even start doing U-turns and then looking for the property owners gate/house for a phone number or see if someone is home. I know it's possible, but rarely see hunters just cruise on past legal animals during the season, even on private property.

Yelm hunter · « **Reply #23 on:** October 13, 2012, 07:44:18 PM »

We seen 5 deer out at Johnson Creeks and Thompson Creek. I let the spike and small 2 point enjoy another day of life!!

gotshot · « **Reply #24 on:** October 13, 2012, 07:50:54 PM »

We saw one nice three point right before light by kapowsin and I swear it was chasing three does. Talked to someome in the kapowsin gate that saw a two point chasing a couple does. I know it sounds wierd.

DoubleJ · « **Reply #25 on:** October 13, 2012, 07:52:11 PM »

Not weird at all. Have had bucks with their noses up does rear ends here all week

gotshot · « **Reply #26 on:** October 13, 2012, 07:54:02 PM »

If I was driving by your land and saw a legal deer bedded I wouldn't trespass to shoot it. I guess it's easier or makes you feel better to just assume the worst of everyone and toss around insults.

crazysccrmd · « **Reply #30 on:** October 13, 2012, 08:09:56 PM »

I didn't see anything today. Trying a different area tomorrow and will have all day instead of just a couple hours in the morning.

ribka · « **Reply #31 on:** October 13, 2012, 08:15:21 PM »

Funny a number of trucks stopped
and hunters bailed out their trucks and pointed rifles at does on my land. Most were fawns

In addition, Chased 4 hunters off posted property on opener

Bucks were bedded on public property

can't fix stupid
