Yeah the negativity around it is a bummer, I waited 11 years for this tag. Regardless of the outcome I've got 11 days to hunt in Nov which is unique in itself. I hope there are lots of bucks and I can find a good one but if not I'm determined not to be down about it before I get there!

The one thing really going for you is that there was little migration for the general, so what there is that migrates should all be there for your pickings.

I can’t wait to get out and glass for my dad. First time he’s ever going to get to experience the mule deer rut. Gonna be tough for sure because he’s never let a legal buck walk. I’ll make sure he lets a few go this year.
We're holding his shells the first couple days! I know he's going to want to let that .300 eat! :chuckle:

I'm getting psyched for my late Gardner tag. I know the population is way down, but I've waited years for a tag. It's going to be a treat to just be there during the rut, and to hunt the area without hordes of people around. I couldn't care less if I get one or not.The old man had this tag in 2015 and you will have a good hunt

What bone said is on the money. Buy a cougar tag please, especially for guys that have any of the Methow tags, lots of cats!

Getting excited here as well. My dad and I finally drew Pogue again after 11 yrs. The last time I shot a large 2 point on the last afternoon. I shot this guy because there were no larger bucks around and I didn't want him passing any more genes around. This year I took two weeks off.
Can't believe it's been that long. What I still can't believe is your dads buck gave me the slip the last day of general for the 2nd year in a row. It was cool to finally see him up close and that your dad was able to tag a great buck in a spot where he'd hunted for years in the general. Good luck to you two. :tup:

I've got one in my pocket already and might be more excited to shoot a lion than a big muley. I'd be thrilled to punch that tag

I'm planning on pulling my travel trailer up Colockum Road. Is that going to be a problem?

I hope there are lots of bucks and I can find a good one but if not I'm determined not to be down about it before I get there!Right on. That's the better attitude to have. Even a quality tag still requires some effort, and that adds to the quality of the experience.
