2010 Westside Late Bucks Down
« on: November 12, 2010, 03:23:46 PM »
I was really surprised at the lack of pressure for the late buck opener. Saw only a few people all day.
Yesterday we ended up getting one in the morning and one in the evening.



More to come later.
Is it April yet?

What permit you hunting with? Maybe the lack of pressure is due to the late buck opener is next week :dunno:

Probably because the late buck season isn't going right now. . .

Doesn't look like he's online to delete it either. . .  :bash:

Epic misreading of the game laws, and an even more epic mistake to post all about it online. . . Being an administrator of the site makes it look even worse too on all of us.  :bdid:  :yike:

There are a few permits going on right now though that would make it possible for this to be legal....guess we will wait and see.

LOL.
Didn't "Is it April yet?" give you a hint? ie: April Fools?

 We had late permits in the Capitol Peak unit. I will be posting a story and more pics later.

PS. Thanks for the pm.

That could be a viable cover, maybe. . . But I don't think any of the seasons opened yesterday, on a Thursday, coincidentally the same day of the week that Late Buck always opens. . .  :yike:

See how easy it is to misread or interpret a post? A couple wrong (intentional this time) words on my part and a wild imagination on other peoples part? Everyone jumps to a conclusion.

I am sure some ten point rangers made a call. That is ok, Enforcement can to to Michelles to check out the capes.  :chuckle:

It goes to show you that people are watching and just waiting to call in to get points without verifing story with the poster.

Even though I have no idea who you are, I do have to admit, since I see you posting on here a lot, that I had a bit of a sinking feeling in my stomach when I first looked at that picture, though.

I'm guessing you had the Capitol peak buck tag good from Nov. 1-24th. Congrats on a couple fine forkies. Keep up the good work.
It's not the size of the trophy that make's it a trophy.

I passed on a few spikes and one whopper two point. Other than that we saw jack crap. I hunted a total of 13 full days and a lot of couple hour hunts after work.

I will have a story up soon.

I knew he was joking but before I ever would jump to the conclusion that he was out of season, I'd first think I had the dates wrong myself.  I've seen a lot of rampant speculation lately and I get constant "reported posts" by people making silly remarks.  No time for that anymore.  If people have issues, contact the poster and keep the dirty laundry & speculations to yourselves.  :twocents:
