Title: Got back from Hells Canyon scouting Muleys
Post by: ChadH on September 01, 2013, 10:18:31 PM: Sounds like a few of us are hunting 18 this year... I drew the Deer tag. Went down this week for 3 days and scouted around. It is really awesome country. Can't wait for the season to start. Elk everywhere... they are EASY to see compared to deer (especially when it is smokey and HOT... ) But we did see a lot of does and fawns, smaller bucks and a one that might go 160. Found a few places to start. If anyone has any tips, I am all ears.

Here are a few pics we took:

Post by: BULLBLASTER on September 01, 2013, 10:30:45 PM: my best advice (after hunting 18 for deer one year) is to get as high as you possibly can... there are lots of deer there, but it seems they are in pockets. some areas are all but void of deer and other similar areas are loaded.
good luck!

Post by: bullcanyon on September 01, 2013, 10:50:13 PM: My cousin seen a buck today that he says is a 200 class deer down there. He is elk hunting, but must be in the wrong area cause he isn't seeing as much as he'd like.
