I missed the whole early season due to Army training. But I'll be hitting hard in the late season.

Well, he said he was going to hold out for a big one.  But this one jumped up right under him.  He saw the forks and the eyeguard....the rest is history.  He says he can now focus on waterfowl.  I'm proud of him.  He's 16-years-old and has now taken 6 bucks.  First 3 were with a rifle and the last three with his muzzleloader.  I passed on a nice heavy 3x3 but will now focus on the late season chasing whitetails....
We were hunting the Wahluke unit GMU 278.  You'll have to wait until November to see my buck photos....

Congrats to all who have filled their tags. Can't use the smokepole until next month for bear and deer.

My sons first year with the smokepole and first elk he is hooked.

My first "Front Stuffer" hunt with a group of 8 friends in Selah (GMU 342).  We ended up with two spikes and one cow.  We're hooked!

[Bubba]

Our group hunted 342 and I got a young cow to fill my tag.  We were in Camp Sidelock down by the feed station.  I am Bubba on the right.

Bubba- We went by your camp numerous times, liked the sign you guys had in front of the trailer (Camp Sidelock), very cool.  We got the spike & cow on Monday up there.   We'll see you guys up there next year.  Congrats, BubbaD

[Bubba]

Thanks BubbaD, glad to here you had a good time.  I talked to you that day, good to here that you got the smoke pole fever.  I will be going with a few of our guys to GMU 130 in November for the late hunt to see if they can fill their tags.  And I will be going to Montana for a buffalo hunt in December with the smoke pole.  Well again good luck and we will see you next year.
