I was going to say the same thing.   Most "180" bucks in Washington are 150 and most  "200" bucks are 180.


Bottom line, most 150 bucks are mature deer and most hunters should or would be happy to harvest one unless carrying a special permit in their pocket, or  are some kind of special.

Like you?  :chuckle:
Oh I be very happy with the pile of 150s I have harvested.

Best way to find a 150 buck in WA is to follow the guy who says he saw a solid 180 class buck.

 Spot on right there!

:yeah: Spot on with both statements, and for me I am super happy with anything that I kill with my bow.  Every year I go after what is legal, sometimes its a doe, sometimes its a 120" buck and some times when I get there I find a 160" deer right next to him and shoot that instead.  Sometimes it works out and sometimes it goes to heck and I have to go find another one to go after.

Actionshooter, I like the looks of that second buck!  Made me think of this one when I saw the pic.
