Scouting around Republic
« on: September 12, 2008, 01:03:06 PM »
Has anyone done any scouting around Republic? Namely the area west of Swan Lake RD.

Dad and I were hoping to get over there for a weekend and do some scouting but I do not think its going to happen.  :dunno:

Been bear and grouse hunting there all season. I have seen a few nice animals, mostly bears. Saw a nice 4pt whitetail last week there. In late Aug we saw 3 buck in there that would have scored over 150. If you want to talk more about it or are interested in a certain location mail me I will get back with you.
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

There are some nice heavy bucks up there, take a camera with you and good luck.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

I saw a really big couger in there a couple miles in from town, it was already in the back of a Toyota but it came from there.
When I pass, do not let my wife sell the guns for what I told her they cost.
