Title: Whidbey Late, Late archery...
Post by: janttihunter on December 23, 2013, 05:52:07 PM: Trying to decide between a few different gmus for one last day out this upcoming weekend. I have a multi-season tag and hunted Whidbey a few days during modern, jumped a few but nothing was moving during daylight. Does anyone know if the deer are moving in the daylight over there at this time of the year? I figure they may be calmed down from less pressure now.

Thanks!

He has a 3pt and some does coming in after dark but going to be tough to catch one in shooting light without any scouting or trail cams.

I got a nice little 4x4 last week about 20 minutes before last light. There was also about 4-5 does moving around at the same time. Two words for you......WET COB.
