Well I'm happy to announce that as far as I know my daughter and I were not scoped once this weekend, of course the fog may have played a role in this, reducing visability to 30 feet most of the time :chuckle:

 Will be back at it Thursday to finish out the week, crossing my fingers that everyone got bino's for Xmas last year :chuckle:

Me neither!  Might try to get out one more time with my aunt and uncle to try and help them locate a buck so I'm going to give that little *censored* that's scoping everyone one more chance...

 Well he wasn't in the Methow this weekend, maybe he drew a late permit this year, give those permit holders something else to be watching out for. :chuckle:
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

  I am a guilty party on this but it was not my fault.  :bash:

Remember when you have a back pack on and are in the woods make sure people can see your back orange!!

I was up hunting a couple years ago and I entered this drainage and thought I kicked some thing up on the other side. All I could see was this brown patch moving up the other side around 200 yards away. I looked at with my nacked eye and thought for sure it was a deer. Even when i got my scope on him it took a few seconds for the guy to turn around a little before I even knew it was a person. Felt like an idoit but lets remember when you throw that back pack on you, people behind you cant see any orange.

This guy maybe had a 1/3 of what is legal showing of orange. Again I felt stupid and I dont think the guy even saw me do this. He should of had some orange on his back side.



Still no excuse, thats what binos are for...  Even if its a deer you shouldn't be scoping it.... basic hunters safety!
