Winthrop/Cub Creek area
« on: October 16, 2008, 08:06:30 PM »
Well my buddies and I got shut out this past week up near Cub Pass in Winthrop.  One of them had a nice buck in his sights, tall rack, but couldn't quite make out a third point, so he didn't take the shot.  Several yards up the hill another hunter took a pop shot at it as it ran away, telling my buddy he just missed a monster.  Better safe than sorry.  Anyhow, we also didn't see as many hunters with a kill this year as we did last year.  Anyone have any luck in the area?  We ended up camping way up Cub Pass, near the top by a radio tower.  Freaking cold up there!  We tried to hunt a little lower, near the double cattle guard.  This is where  we saw the most action.  We also saw saw a nice 2 point off Gunn Rd., little side road.  Should we be hunting somewhere else in Winthrop?

  I too hunted up in that area and didnt see much and only saw one hunter down way low around 3rd creek take a small 3 point. Pretty slow for mulies this year I think. Headed up to Teanaway for a last ditch effort this weekend. Not so worried about it, I got Montana from Nov 13th - 22nd to nail a mulie!!!  :IBCOOL: Good luck to all the rest of the season that we wait so long for and watch it go by like its only a couple hours long!!!!!!!!!!!!!
