How are the Mulies looking in Central Washington.? Almost late archery time. Are they moving yet? Still hanging up high.

Watched this guy out my window yesterday eating breakfast. He was following a doe and then a smaller buck came in. He ran him off then came back looking for the hot doe that had left.

Lots of unattended doe groups.  Big boys are napping.  Little ones are thinking it’s the promise land with no biggies to hamper their efforts but can’t understand why the does have no interest.  They are taking a break until Thanksgiving

I am wondering the same thing, I have the late Mission muzzy tag, headed back up this weekend for one last scouting trip before the opener.

The bucks in town (Wenatchee) are chasing for sure

Heading to the gym this morning I had to come to a complete stop after backing out of my driveway so that a doe being chased by a little buck didn't run into my rig. Luckily the doe was paying attention and weaved around me because I am pretty sure the buck would have plowed right into me.
