Idaho 10A Whitetail

[3nails]

 Heading over solo for the last week of the season. Anyone on here going to be there?

[elkboy]

I'll be going up on free days or afternoons to 8A, just over the state line. The snow makes me think the deer will be getting active!

Good luck, 3Nails!

Good luck the weather should help

Good luck. We hunted 10A for 6 days last year and never saw a buck. Camps with 10 plus dudes only had 1 buck between them. The camp in the same area as us had 4 guys. They killed 1 buck and left early because of lack of deer. We had some snow and everything. I hope your hunt is better than ours.

I was out there this morning and gotta go back up on the hill again. Saw 50 deer. 37 of those were below the snow. Snows moving the does and fawns down. About 6” on top of grangemont. Watch for black ice!!!

I was over there a bit last year to try and get a sense of how bad the EHD kill was...didn't seem too bad...but this year I'm hearing some pretty bleak reports...hope it was just the warm weather and now that its getting cold the reports will change dramatically.

Heading over on the 13th.  Different unit though.

22 more this afternoon. Most in a day I've seen this year since the spring.


These numbers aren’t counting the deer in people’s yards either.

Heavy snow and winds 50+ mph this weekend.  Be safe out there!!

1-1.5 feet of new snow above the 3000 foot level and now switching to rain

too early to rattle, in case my mule deer plans next week get snowed out,  i may be whitetail hunting. will rattling still be worthy? or is it too early

3Nails should weigh in- he has a lot of rattling experience with whitetails.  I've rattled in 5 good Idaho bucks, and those were all concentrated towards the end of November.  I've rattled from the very beginning of November, but I've shifted towards more sitting and waiting, at least in early November. 

Good luck to you.

We'll be over there from the 10th to the close. Lots of good reports from what I've been hearing. With this snow it will definitely make things interesting!

[C-Money]

Good luck!! Hope you find one!
