Title: Methow tagholder meetup?
Post by: davew on November 02, 2023, 08:18:06 AM: I'll be in the valley all next week with a Gardner tag in my pocket. Would any tagholders (or others) be interested in meeting up for a beer one evening? We could compare notes, celebrate success or cry in our beer. Given the state of the herd, option 3 might be the most likely.

My friend's father (76) has the late Chewuch and they turned up some dandies in scouting earlier this week. Haven't relocated them yet now that its open. They were all pretty low elevation out in the sage and buckbrush.

The son is on here and I will let him speak to a meet up. That said, I bet you will find a good one!

KDB - Maybe I'll run into you. Good luck!

There's a three fingers Jack in Winthrop?

No way......

My dad, Jack, became three fingers Jack in a machining accident.
I'm gonna need to find this place.
I'm headed to Winthrop tomorrow.

Easy to find
It’s right at the four way stop where Hwy 20 hits down town.

Post by: davew on November 09, 2023, 04:21:59 AM: There didn't seem to be much interest in a meetup, so I never followed up on this. If enough guys are interested, how about 3 Finger Jack's tonight (Thursday)? 6:30?

I passed up a shot on a big one 5 minutes into my weeklong hunt Monday morning. It was raining hard, my glasses were fogged up a bit and the range was longer than I'm used to. And it was dawn on my first day. Since then, I've been seeing a fair number of does and small bucks but nothing tag worthy. How's everyone else doing?

Used to be a very cool place, I haven’t been there in awhile. I’m not sure how old your son is, but it’s a bar/dining, so family can go to. (Used to anyway)
