MHWASH:
 Dad and I drew late deer permits for Pogue. The last time we drew this tag we got our bucks on the 10th & 11th. The rut was deffinatly on, but the bucks seemed to be cruising more than chasing does. Right now my plan is to take the week of the 10th thru the 18th. What are your thoughts?

Its going to all depend on the weather.  Necks are starting to swell and trees are starting to get ripped about the 31st of October.  Its usually going full bore by the 12th of November.  I see the biggest bucks about the 15th- Thanksgiving.

Congrats on a great tag.  Looking forward to some pics of some HAWGS

I have drawn the Alta, Pogue and Quilomene Nov permits and ditto Bone's observations on rutting bucks.

Ridgerunner:
When I had my late tag I thought things really got going around the 7th.  I would say the 10-18th you will be in good though.  Post some pics afterwards.
