Peak Week for Hunting Blacktail
« on: September 16, 2018, 03:41:15 PM »
If you could choose 1 week to hunt Blacktail on the West slopes of the Cascades in October or November and the general season dates weren't a factor then what week would you choose? I would probably say November 3rd-10th.

Great answer Skook.  I agree with 7 - 11, or 6 -12 to fill out the week.

...however, if I had been able to see vitals on the gorgeous three point I caught watching me from 30 yards this morning, I might be voting for 16 September.  :'(

Consensus here seems to be the first couple days of November. I've heard alot of guys also say November 11 as the peak.
