Yes been there last 2 yrs first yr was late muzzy with daughter and her boyfriend he was using his bow first time hunter had several chances but could not put it together he had several deer in but the kept moving around or would look his way everytime he would try and pull back lol.
My daughter and I were able to put the stock on a few nice whitetails on the way to our blind but no luck and then had the biggest whitetail I've ever seen come into our blind but never offered a ethical shot it stayed skylined at 100 yrds the whole time.we got out of blind and put a stock on it but wind changed and it was gone.seen about 80 -100 mule deer every day with a bunch of nice bucks .
-

What is your success rate for unguided early archery?
-
Girl was three yrs ago, boy was 2 yrs ago...Dont keep track of unguided hunts since i dont always talk to the hunters before they leave. You will see alot of deer and see many bucks while on the farm. Early archery is generally really good. I was seeing four to five shooter bucks a night before i shot mine last archery season.
-
Can you pm me some details on an unguided and guided hunts as well as prices please?
-

we DIY hunted the farm a few years back with Craig. modern firearm started Saturday and even though our hunt didn't start until Tuesday we came over that Friday to spend some time in camp and get the lay of the land. Opening day they had a disabled persons hunt and we helped recover and field dress the deer those hunters shot, That nite we got to be involved in the steak dinner they fed those hunters and it was a really cool experience. Hung around camp that Sunday and Monday and helped Craig with some chores of re baiting his feeders and some other things that helped us gain knowledge of the farm. Our hunt started Tuesday---really windy that morning and that had the deer slow to move...were still able to see a ton of does and non-legal bucks. No shot opportunities that nite or the next morning on legal bucks. Wednesday nite the flood gates opened and 3 legal bucks were killed-another was missed (that is the pic in the thread of the 5 guys and the 3 bucks...i am the 2nd dude on the left) it was a long nite of getting bucks back to camp, hanging and skinning and drinking some tasty refreshments. That next morning was way too early and at first lite i walked out of camp along the eastern edge of the farm...hadn't gone more than a couple hundred yards when i started seeing deer in the wheat fields filtering back into the surrounding draws. An hour later saw a legal whitetail but he was skylined on a ridge at less than 100 yards and from previous scouting i knew farms were down below the ridge so i let him pass. went another couple hundred yards and glassed a mature whitetail buck bedded down on a point about 500 yards from me. I quietly slipped up on him not worrying about another hunter blowing him out and finally ranged him at 223 yards. used a standing pine tree as a rest and shot him in his bed. walked up to him and saw that i had spined him so i anchored him with another shot. on the point he was bedded had he gone 10 feet in any direction he would have dropped hundreds of feet in elevation. Walked up to him and then the nerves hit....in almost 40 years of hunting washington i have never come close to killing a buck as big as the one that lay just feet in front of me. stood there for minutes just admiring him before i thought to put a hand on him...real nice buck. took some pics with my phone and was able to call Craig and tell him where i was and what had happened...he came out with the quad and after a big thank you hug had him loaded up and headed back to camp. he was full of wheat kernels and the best tasting deer i've ever ate. Best deer i have ever shot. The third guy in our party tagged out on a mulie that nite. What a trip---you literally have the hunting area to yourself. Craig and Melodie are real good people and if you are interested in a great hunt i highly reccommend them. if anyone has any more questions i can answer anything you might have. I'm sure people kill these caliber bucks every year but it was really special to someone that doesn't..Really cool also that one day Craig's mom and step-dad came to camp to see how things were going and brought us KFC from Spokane---that really broke up the beanie-weenie diet that we had been on that week ! Thanks Craig---every time i look up on the wall and see that beauty i think of the great week i had on the farm.

Here is a pic of the buck i took last year during the Archery season. This was mounted by Eric Reed of Fin, Fur, and Feather Taxidermy who is also a Sponsor on the site. Eric does excellent work and the mounts are so life like. I would recommend him for any of your Taxidermy needs.

:yeah: I have known Craig before he was running the guide service. Ran into him a few times hunting the very same property. Craig will help you in anyway he can to make your experience a fun time. I have been hunting the property for 20+ years and I have seen deer on every knoock and cranny, draw, creek bed, wheat field on the Ranch. I have literally had deer run right through camp the day before the opening. Great bunch of guys!
Craig, how is the herd looking this year? Got any recent game pics?
