No offense, but have you been spraying paint into a brown paper sack and then inhaling it deep into your lungs? There are no white-tail around Ellensburg. There are mule deer though.

If you want whitetails you're gonna need to hit a different part of the state.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

The Oak rail tavern, might find some white-tail there.. :chuckle:
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

Actually that's not quite true, 2 of the past three winters knocked the herd down about 60-75%.  Some whitetails are there, but it's certainly not loaded anymore.

OH...I stand corrected then, its been 5yrs sense I hunted White-tail. Last time I did I've seen 12 bucks in 5 days in that area (mostly spikes and forkers, all shooters). So I just assumed they were still going strong. My bad.
