Title: Peaches Ridge
Post by: tazman2800 on October 13, 2012, 05:26:06 PM: Will be leaving in 7 days for Peaches Ridge any bull tag for modern firearm. Any last minute advice, we will probably be hunting near five corners or behind the road 4510 gate.

Post by: yakimarcher on October 16, 2012, 11:29:19 AM: I hunted early archery for the last couple years in little naches and always see a few big bulls, they're definately in there! get a monster!!!!
Title: Re: Peaches Ridge
Post by: crazyantler on October 16, 2012, 11:42:45 AM: Good Luck. We had the tag last year and got two bulls and I had the archery bull tag this year and saw lots of nice bulls but could not close the distance by myself. They would come into 80 yards and sometimes closer in thick brush but never got the sweet spot. The bulls obviously move around between early archery and your hunt but I have seen more activity this year and bulls than last year.

Post by: wall of wood camp on October 16, 2012, 08:31:27 PM: Good luck on the tag we took five bulls out of that unit last year it is an awesome hunt practically have the place to yourself the first week until general starts up then it becomes time to not be picky. Lots of bulls in there this yearhunt hard and it will pay off. Looking forward to your pictures. Have fun and don't get discouraged.
