Title: Methow Long Shot
Post by: X-Force on October 01, 2015, 09:00:32 PM: I have family property in the valley that we usually use for the 2012 Methow tag. However this year my dad had our neighbor feed his cows on the peice and they mowed down the thickets. I walked through the peice today but the amount of deer sign was disheartening.

My plan was to pop-up a tree stand tomorrow so i could hunt over a game trail with my daughter for an hr or 2 Saturday and Sunday morning. With the lack of deer sign I don't think we would see any action.

I am wondering if anyone had a peice of land they would let a father and daughter hunt for a little bit Saturday morning.

Pm me with any info. Thanks

Nope, perfectly legal.

Good luck to you and your daughter! Wish I could help ya out with some great deer action.
