No deer left in the Mission.  Wolves have killed them all.    :)

They are probably just arriving wacoyote - you should have a great hunt.  Good luck; I'm looking forward to seeing some pictures.

Don't worry we're keeping a close eye on em for ya.  Seen some pretty nice bucks at over 3200' yesterday.  They started to move again with this weather we're getting.  I'll shoot you a pm later, we're going up again in the morn. :)

I was at the little store 10 miles in on Entiat river road to have dinner last night and there was a guy in there that shot a late muzzy deer in the Mission unit on Friday. He said it was a 4x5 with eye guards and had a 31 in. spread.

That was Derek Erdmann you talked to. We stopped in and visited with him at the store for a minute last night too. He was helping a Muzz tag holder in the Chiwawa. That must have been you sitting with another guy and kid. Did you guys get a buck yet?

That was me at the table on the side there with my son and a freind. We only have doe tags for the Entiat. My buddy got his tonight. I overheard him talking about it. Did they every find the buck his freind shot?

No deer left in the Mission unit they already ran over to the Swakane unit.

How could you possibly hunt all of that in 4 days?  I could spend 4 days in any one of those places and not see all it has to offer.

I was in some of them scouting the days before opener and only saw tracks with snow in them , moved down to hunt some of the lower areas , glassed alot of country some roads are impassable , i also have a freind with the tag and were split up . Wow is everyone on here better hunters than each other nothing but critisizm thought this was a forum about hunting not about who is so much better , all i was saying is i covered alot of ground and with help from others and only have turned up small bucks.

Don't be so sensitive.   :)  You said you hunted all those areas and my response wasn't meant to criticize. 

The Mission is a tough unit to hunt.  The rut is almost over and the bigger bucks will be a lot more reclusive.

I thought it might have been. Crazy how many people you cross paths with that are on this site.

Im not sure if they recovered the buck or not. We didnt talk to him yesterday. From the sounds of it the buck cant go far though.
