Looks like you've got a couple of shooters there. Did you draw, or is this a general season unit?

hunter-4-life · « **Reply #6 on:** July 27, 2010, 10:52:25 AM »

It's a draw. Actually to tell you the truth I am not the one who drew. My wife did. So I am trying to put her on a nice buck. I think the area we were in has bigger bucks. We kinda picked a bad day to scout because the night before we did was a full moon. So they probably fed all night. And with the weather being so hot the bucks were already heading to their beds. And those big bucks always move with the shade. They are rarely seen in the sun. That's just what I think anyway.

You are probably right. What unit did she draw?

Great looking bucks, that buck on the right in the third pic down has some crazy looking eye guards for a Mulie.

Some good looking bucks

Good luck to your wife on her hunt

We will be making more trips down there between now and opening weekend. Also would like to post more pics as we get them. We will be focusing more on the end of the season because it is closer to the rut. But on the other hand its her tag so I am not going to hold her back on pulling the trigger on something she may consider a trophy.

No Kidding! I thought it was one of those mulie/rocky crosses for a second there!

Great pics! Great size on that whole bachelor group. Haven't seen a group like that in WA.

wilsongideon · « **Reply #20 on:** August 04, 2010, 04:50:00 PM »

awesome pictures...thats gotta be exciting to see in your hunt area

haugenna · « **Reply #21 on:** August 04, 2010, 08:27:35 PM »

All nice bucks. Give the one with the eyeguards coming straight out 2 years and he will be a real dandy.

great pics. Best of luck to both of you.

You are exactly right, we have watched countless big mulies that move to their bed as soon as the sun is starting to rise, as you said, many big bucks do not let the sun hit them while feeding.

How long did it take her to draw that tag?

hunter-4-life · « **Reply #25 on:** August 11, 2010, 01:12:36 PM »

Bearpaw, I am glad you agree with me. We will be doing most of our scouting within the first hour of light. Hopefully we can lay eyes on something bigger than what we already have.

hunter-4-life · « **Reply #26 on:** August 11, 2010, 01:13:09 PM »

NRA4LIFE, this was her first year putting in.

Great looking bucks!

Any new Pics? Have you been able to get back out there?
