Teanaway late archery

[bushmaster]

Anyone heading to the "T" for late archery elk? Or 336?

[Ice Cap]

I live in the Teanaway unit and have been spending lots of time scouting. I will be out there for sure!

I will be up there for a couple weekends, i did some scouting a week or so ago and will be back up there in a week again to do some more, my boss has some property up there, its the first time i have hunted that unit, but there was a lot of sign and looks to be very promising, i am praying the snow works in my advantage, i'll be staying up there four days the first weekend, then again the following, permitting the wifey doesn't go into labor!!  

It would be perfect to put something on the ground before baby number two shows up, at least it would earn those proverbial "brownie points" if i wasn't hunting the first few weekends after he is born!!!

Im going to head up on the 23rd, maybe stay at the camp by the fire station, camp neighbors welcomed!! The last time I went up for late elk, I was drinkin alone! There was nobody for 4 days.

My uncle and I will be over there at some point.  Might be at the campground by the fire station or 29 pines but not sure yet We will be in a blue toyota, say hi if you see us.  Good luck!

Im going up on the 22nd with the bull tag...hoping the snow comes hard sometime in that first week. Man this has been a loooooong wait. I took a buddy to Sequim a couple weeks ago for deer and at least got some blood on the hands with a nice blacktail for his first deer. Can't wait to actually get to hunt.

  i want to get something down, early archery ended and i was like, here comes the wait...... i asked a buddy of mine, is it bad to dream of the sound of my arrow breaking bones? it runs through my head as i doze off each night, my wife laughed when i mentioned that, i guess she doesn't get it

I know where the cows will be if it snows, I know where they will be if it dont. I hope it snows a bit, because Im not looking forward to the hike if the weather is good. I just got off the phone with a guy who has been up there for rifle and its very dismal for a true spike, BUT he has seen 37 cow elk in 4 days! Some as close as 40yds. He has seen 1 5x5, 1 6x7 and 2 3x3s. His dad saw 13 cows on the other end of the T with NO bulls to speak of. Im trying to team up with "stormy85" but it sounds like he might be 3 miles up the road. I will be hunting alone, but would like to meet up with another solo hunter to try and tag team an area that WILL produce. Its just tough without someone watching the other side.

I've got the muzzy bull tag that starts on Dec. 9th.  I'll be doing my final scouting during the archery hunt. If any archers need help packing or want to network with me on elk locations then shoot me a p.m.  I've got some great areas to start but any additional help would be appreciated.  Last year the muzzies went 0 for 8(that's what was reported) so I know this won't be an easy hunt.  Go luck to everybody and be safe.

I will be at the campground by the fire station/store with a "welcome hunters" schmitt banner. Started getting some PMs from guys that are going to be there also. Could turn into a good group of guys all trying to get each-other an elk. You wouldn't hear of such a thing from rifle hunters. Kinda weird how the archery and muzzy guys have a camaraderie together to help one another out! Karma does exist, and it can help or hurt as we all know! I choose to share my info,I want karma working with me, not against me!

[teanawayslayer]

that's because it takes skill to get an animal.  We stick together.  Thats what hunting should be about.  Not stealing animals. and sh!t like that.  Modern sucks.  I think if you weeded out a few people from the heard we could all work together.  It's to bad there are a several people out there that ruin it for every one.  I wish all you guys luck in the late season.  Sure wish they would open the cow season to muzzle also.

I can't remember if I talked to you before or not but my old man and I both had that tag two years back and neither filled them. I believe it was 0 for 6 that year too. PM me for more details.

Just talked with a guy who just came back from the T & clockum for 5 days. ZERO, nothin, and nothin hanging. He saw tons of cows and big bulls, not 1 spike,or I should say "TRUE spike". He did say someone shot a forknhorn and got caught. Said he saw all the deer he couldnt find in rifle season. 3 weeks to go! practicing out to 65yds. no excuses!

Lets PM and trade some phone numbers. We can touch base during season and trade notes. I am only looking for a big bull and I'm sure I will see some cows in the process. We can meet up a night or two and trade notes, stoke a fire and have a sip of the good stuff. Then pass some info on to the Muzz hunters so they can fill as well.
