I got the peaches ridge archery bull tag finally!!!

[brianmtsinc]

My Uncle drew this tag as well... cant wait!! 

Didnt you have the tag last year? I think i met you down there openingday of general with your daughter. I had the spike in the white dodge?

I did have the Peaches last year, but you must have met the other Brian and his daughter (since I don't have a daughter  )  It's going to be a much better year for Peaches tags due to no cow hunting in the unit this archery season

Hey There, Yes it was me with my Daughter. I bet that spike tasted good this past year. Brianmtsinc's 70+ year old Uncle drew the peaches tag so we are going work our tails off for him. He cant get too far from the road but that should not be a problem with that tag in the peaches with no cow hunting.

Hope you are doing well!

Good luck this season.

Ha ya I did mean the other Brian. Sorry about that. The no cow hunting will help out a bunch for sure.

Does anyone know who the Dept. Of Fish And Wildlife Game biologist is that is in charge of the Peaches Ridge area?  If so could you post his/her info.. would like to call for information on counts and locations.  For the rest this is also a great resource.

if you get a hold of them, ask why in the hell they give out 500 cow permits for that unit?? Good luck on a fun hunt!

  dumb...they did it in yakima and the clockum units...reduce the herd is what there doing..

the very west end of the unit will offer you some good back country hunting . if your willing to pack in you would have a ton of land to yourself .

Coming from a guy with some first hand experience.  I would put alot of weight in that information.

Anx I would second that info!!!

Might want to PM both of these guys for a little help or at least read through some of their posts, lot of experience between these two.

I second third and fourth this. Do a search on peaches ridge. Look in the "elk hunting" section for a recent post started by Rt... He knows his stuff and is very helpful and kind in pointing people in the right direction.

Good luck and head far from roads. Put some cameras up and have fun

most guys will hike in for a couple of days then there legs or spirit will quit. If your able to spike in a couple miles your ahead of the game . being a lil crazy doesn't hurt either . If your doing a solo hunt i'd recommend partnering up with another tag holder . if its hot you will have to double time to get one out .  get away from the campers and weekend warriors will increase your hunt ten fold . remember its not how far you can hike but how far can you pack an elk

I love the back country hunt an that's what the plan is to hike and spike camp. I actually drew the tag with a buddy so the plan is hunt all day hunt hard and camp where ever we are when the sun goes down. I plan on doing all the calling and filming for his hunt. I'm heading up this weekend to hike around one of the ridges and set up game cams then head back up the weekend after the 4th. I will be posting pictures and keeping you guys update on the progress. If anybody is up there I will driving a f250 white and blue with a white canopy.

[ELKBURGER]

Sounds like you are off to a great start. Best of luck to you!

 So a quick update on the scouting we have only been twice twice but heading up again real soon. We did see elk both times but this time was pretty good. NO bulls but but enough cows and calfs to just know there is plenty bulls that roam that area. It is a awesome area and can't wait to get back up there and do some more exploring. I have a couple more areas to check out but already have a spot that I'm trying to get into on the opener. Also coachew both times we have been there we have seen hundreds of people I can only imagine how many people will be up there on Labor Day weekend.

I would drive to quartz mountain and drop off the back side a few miles with a bivey set up. You will be in elk if you find water.
