I hunt muleys on the eastside every year and that is not the middle of the rut.

I hunted modern rifle for 12 years and never had it in prime rut. I quess only fools buy guided hunts on E-bay, or sell them on there. :dunno:

They have got really good feedback.  Prices seem reasonable also.  I wonder what their success rates are and such...  Looks like some big mulies on there.  They are located north or Spokane.  I've hunted that area around Chatteroy and haven't really seen mulies.  Not sure if they hunt them there or elsewhere.  Interesting.

He was actually featured in Eastmans way back in the day, he does know his stuff.  Seems like an odd way to sell your hunts, but I don't doubt a guy could get a nice one with him.  If I remember he took a 30" plus buck for 3 years in a row up there.

His auction just seems a little strange. Do the deer actually rut that early up there?

I have hunted on the east side for years during mid October and I have never seen any significant rutting activity  during that time.  "Prime of the rut" :chuckle:

I hope I'm not a fool. I bought a guided turkey hunt off ebay with these guys. I'm going in April. I have talked to them a couple of times and they are very nice and well respected guides. I have talked to a couple guys that hunted with them and had a great time. There are also quite a few good reviews about their operation on Huntinginfo.com. They kill some slammer Whitetails. I got the hunt about $300 under list price.

I quess I was too quick to judge. :DOH: It was the "prime rut" in October that threw me. I don't know much about the deer in that area, do they rut during that time of year. Hope your turkey hunt goes well.

I may be wrong but it looks like $3500 for a mule deer hunt, five days? If you compare that to Buck Run ($6000 ) it looks reasonable. Looks like they take some bruisers.
