Title: Hunting in Lopez
Post by: irishevox on December 09, 2013, 07:32:47 AM: Well this sunday, I went out to hopefully fill my tag with BEARHUNTER and it was a great trip. I missed a shot at a nice 3 point black tail, and saw about 7-8 bucks and a ton of does.... BEARHUNTER scored a nice doe to fill his 2nd muzzle loader tag. Really good day, though i wasn't able to fill mine i was glad to be out with a buddy and help him fill his tag. Great trip :tup:

Where do you work if you don't mind me asking? I was with VQ-1/VQ-2 and I'm headed to FRC now. There are plenty of deer on Whidbey if you get out there and talk to people.

Post by: irishevox on December 10, 2013, 07:25:32 AM: Don;'t have time to Scout.... so thats why i am asking for land access or someone to put me on a deer.

Well here is the Story for the Deer i missed.
It was about noon time and Danny and i went walking different directions trying to jump something! After walking for over and hour and pushing through some thick stuff, i was sweaty and started to cramp, so i headed back to the truck took my facemmask off and my gloves and tossed them on top of the truck, i stood by the top or the road with my bow looking down the powerlines. i hear some pushing through the woods, so i whistle thinking it was Danny and it wasn't out steps a nice three point so i line up on him give a little mouth grunt he stops broadside and looks dead at me i release and he runs off. I looked for the Arrow and blood and found nothing... i think i aimed a little high.... my bow was off, my shot was off. But Danny and i looked and found nothing, it was not long after that Danny shot his really nice doe, he has pictures maybe he will see this and post them. I plan to go back maybe sunday, since this is my last avail weekend to hunt deer this season in Wa b/c i am going on leave next week home to louisiana to hunt the whitetail rut (Rifle). So if anyone could land me on a deer Sunday that would be Awesome!!!!! Thanks all and i was at least happy to get a shot opportunity. :tup:
