It was good in Ferry co Nov 15-26th

I'm sure you are right but outside of Ferry county there is no East Side archery open during that time and plenty of gun seasons open.

Genes are genes and it doesn't matter what age you pass them on at.  Still the same DNA.
This is true but most of the time DNA isn't expressed until the buck is 3 1/2 or older. When you harvest a 2 1/2 year old buck you really have no idea what he would have become and the same goes to him breeding.

I see it in the kids I coach. It is really hard to tell what kind of athelete a kid will grow up to be until he is about 14. I feel like a deer's equivalent age to a 14 year old athelete is about 3 1/2.

At my spots it looks like the prime time would have been Nov 14-21. New bucks almost every day during that time. It is also when mature ones were around and in daylight. After that they were gone.

I was in 124...... 26 Nov - 8 Dec. Lots of does an a few spikes. Lots of nice bucks on the trail cam in multiple areas. Did not see one bit of chasing the whole time.

Where I'm hunting a guy shot a HUGE 6x7 a GIANT 10x10 and some guy got a 5x7 the other day yet I can't even find a spike! Which at this point I would shoot a doe just to get some meat in the freezer.
Make every shot count cause ya might not get another.
