Northern Idaho White Tail Report

Bucks are starting to cruise and chase does. Buck I killed had a swollen neck. Not many folks out yet. Very few elk camps left and very few people hunting white tail. I wonder if the PotlatchDeltic road closures scared people off

Did you kill a mature buck or a young one?

Nice buck, thanks for info. My dad and friends are headed out in the morning. Wish I could've made it but not in the cards this year

As far as deer numbers go, I’ve been in 2 units 80% of the total days since the first week of May (I live in the woods from May-Mid October). Seeing a lot of white tail does with twins and a few triplets running around. Lots and lots of young bucks 3 points or less. Seen about a dozen bucks that in my opinion would be shoulder mount worthy.
I haven’t had the chance to spend many days in the blue tongue outbreak areas outside of small mouth fishing this summer or making Costco runs and overall haven’t seen many deer where the blue tongue hit the hardest. I was only up the Lochsa once this summer and don’t have a report on that. I know one farmer that found 19 buck deadheads on his property since last year.

I have one decent young buck on camera, a 4x4, not very thick antlers, a doe with twins and a doe on her own. That is the five deer I have seen on my property the past 4 weeks. The buck is not showing any interest in the does as of yet. Numbers in my area are still down pretty significantly from 2 years ago. I've not seen any of the smaller bucks yet.

Bucks are chasing and folks I know are having success rattling bucks in. Was darn near ran over by a buck chasing a doe across the road on my evening walk.
Headed a little bit north for the next few days this week and next week for work so we will see how the rut action is up there.

Headed over the 15th. Should be primed up pretty good we’re hoping.

Went out yesterday. Saw total of five does, pretty active during daylight hours. I think the cold is getting them moving! Still hoping for some buck movement.

Went out today wood cutting and saw 5 whitetail doe and a mulely doe, mulely had a 2 pt on her trail nose down. Saw a nice 150 WT in back of someone’s truck. Yesterday we saw two nice 4 or 5s chasing but they were on private. The cold is definitely helping.

If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

A lot of good bucks have been hitting the ground in the last 5 days. Bumped 3 rutting mature bucks this week while painting boundaries.
