Late muzzy 2013

[teanawayslayer]

We will be headed down to kahlotous on the 20th.  Really looking forward to this hunt this year.  I have spent a lot of time in the field this year with the multi tag.  Passed on several decent bucks.  This is the first year in the past 10 years that I hunted deer with a rifle.  Man I figured out in a hurry why I don't hunt with a rifle any more.  Anyways just curious what others had going on.  Good luck to all!!

Thats a great unit! Public or private land?

I know it is a great place to hunt in the late season. as far as public or private

Very wide open country....one of those areas the WDFW "gives" to muzzle loaders in this corner of state to make it seem like they care about us.      I'll be there regardless...
Tons of private land and posted up. Some written by permission signs but I think mostly for show as landowners always have some excuse not to give permission. Best bet is to get a map showing Federal lands such as BLM.

you would be surprised they are usually pretty good at giving out permission.  Some aren't but you don't know until you ask. 

[BOOM!!]

Hope you get a nice one!    Hope Andre and I get a nice one

I'll be in Kahlotus also...if I don't fill my tag there, we'll head up to Roosevelt. I am dedicated, until a big muley steps in front of me, to get a nice whitetail buck. I have spent the last 5 seasons hunting them. Maybe it will happen this year...

Keep after it man, they are there! I killed this one last year last evening, I missed a way bigger one that morning.

[Jimmy33]

yeah, I know they are there. I grew up there. I have taken plenty of muleys in that area, just haven't shot a nice whitetail. Nice buck by the way...was he rutting at all?

 I just found out I will have a few days off, so I will be headed up to 381 myself, wish I would have known sooner so I could get some better scouting/door knocking done. oh well.

Any local place in tri cities that carries decent maps that shows blm land etc.

[Jimmy33]

None that I know of. Get on the Franklin County website and look at the assessor's maps. That is a good resource.

Sportsman's and Ranch & home both carry the "L C sportsmaps"

No, he was by himself and looked to be all done.
