Chewuch Quality Buck Tag

[tgray]

That's a great buck Tgray. I spend a fair amount of time in that unit. That would be a shooter all day in my opinion, I know I couldn't hold out. I knew an old timer up there who ran a little store in Winthrop. He had tons of pictures of massive bucks taken in that unit and neighboring units. I've seen some big ones come out of the Rendezvous area.

Oh I’m happy with him, I did see a tank though a few days before that I couldn’t get on and this was the first day it snowed and had a few days left, never know I guess but I think looking back it was only going to get better….maybe.

Had that tag a few years back, awesome fun hunt. Good luck 

How did your hunt, Any pictures?

seen lots of smaller bucks, I shot a decent buck with a couple days left in the season, probably should have waited

Great buck. That's a great representative of the species. Thanks for sharing Tgray

You may still see us in there. Just I have the tag so he may want to hunt BT. I won't be packing unless I have a bear tag still though!

Fun hunt and I'm glad I got to experience it once even if it was maybe the worst year to draw. No snow and bluebird days. Now that I'm back in Oregon it's a bummer we have almost no November hunts for mule deer.

Had that tag last year.  Bummer that most of 218 just burned up.

I would not let fires dampen my excitement if i had that tag. I shot my biggest buck one year standing in fire retardant in a burned area. The deer you are looking for is moving through not  living there. Your deer doesn't know the area is burning and wont care once he gets there in November.

Good advice, my brother has this tag, may open up some country for the late hunt👍🏻

How could the Cub Creek fire "open up some country" for the late hunt? I don't see the chance of accessing most parts of 218 very likely at all.

Open as far as visibility, if it’s still closed then yes bummer.

I’ll just be glad if we don’t lose my buddies cabin
To heck with deer hunting
Deer are where you find em

[Twispriver]

 
I'm thinking the same thing and my place is across the Twisp River but directly in line with Thompson Ridge

[MADMAX]

Sucks
We can’t even make  a run over to get the heads rugs and euros out of the cabin
Locked out
Understandable
No entry

I’d be there ready to roll if I had that tag! Like others said, the deer you are hoping to hunt are migrants and they will be coming through whether it’s burned or not.

For you folks that have houses and cabins in the area my fingers are crossed for you. My buddy has a place off the Twisp river road and starting to sweat a bit now.
