Before this year I would have never guessed there was this much pressure to go along with such a great tag. It almost makes me think twice about putting in for it next year............YEAH right! Props to 300 I don't think I could do the tag as much justice as 300 or Garrett and his dad did last year. I know the wife would never go for it.

I was there Friday and Saturday and gave Dan the location of a couple that will go 180-185. I am confident the deer were not going anywhere and should be accessable, although its going to be a hike and a long drag if he drops one. With the ones Bone gave him coordinates for and the ones I pointed out I'm betting he is knee deep in snow and sweat right now

Sorry, that was cold. But I can't take the suspense any longer. My wife says I have a problem, the way I rush to and from the pc. Then says get a life.  Hey, I'm thinking maybe get a new wife!!! Anybody know a place that takes trade in's? Fairly low miles and clean.

My wife keeps yelling at me because we are trying to play games with her family tonight. I keep getting up and checking. If 300 doesn't post soon I will be sleeping on the couch.

I may need to leave my cell number with someone, I've gotta be going and this is gonna kill me to leave before knowing something!

I must be lucky my wife is out of town so I don't have to hear her tell me I'm nuts for living on the comp.  Its getting late.  Cross our fingers

Second to last update:

Hit the Methow today, 50Cal dropped me off in the hills above Winthrop and essentially picked me up in the hills above Twisp. No sleds today so the boots got another work out. Hit Bones area hard but could not find the big boys. It was an awesome sunny day out, very cold, but sunny, so there were a lot of XC skiers, snowshoers, and sleds out and about. I think they made the big bucks nervous so they hid. Saw tons of deer, lots of small bucks, so Bone and Huntnphool definitely sent me to the happy wintering grounds. I didn't want to end the day early so I kept up high and went on and on and on. Same thing over every ridge though, lots of does and small bucks. When I finally called 50Cal to come pick me up, he was surprised by the distance traveled. I did see my first set of cat tracks today. With all the miles I have put on this year I finally cut some cat tracks. Not to long after seeing the tracks I ran into some more XC skiers, they asked what I was hunting, I said deer, and they replied that there was no deer hunting open right now. I took a few minutes to explain. They said they just saw four does just a quarter mile back. I thanked them and told them about the cat tracks and they got really concerned looks on their face. I think I'm even with them now.

I have some opportunities to fill the tag with a good buck tomorrow but need to sleep on it because it borders on whether it is "hunting" or not.

It's almost over, I think I will remember this experience forever no matter what the outcome.
