I hope I don't miss him this year. I am sorry for the pics I'll get better ones He was a mile and a half today and he was 100 yards off the road yesterday with no camera. He is mid to upper 5x5. 160's again I am sorry for the pics.

Post by: jjhunter on August 22, 2010, 08:26:49 PM: Those are good bucks for WA, but you'll be a bit disappointed when you pull out the tape on that buck you called mid-170's. He looks 150ish to me.
Title: Re: Morning scouting trip
Post by: Mr T on August 27, 2010, 09:15:26 PM: What time of the morning are you noticing the deeer movement around there?
Title: Re: Morning scouting trip
Post by: turkey slayer on August 27, 2010, 10:01:30 PM: Most of the deer movements is from day light to around 7 to 730. They will start changing there times with all the wheat getting harvested and feeding area changing. The times in my area will be an hour after day light and they will be in there bedding area, and start moving 2 to 3 hours be for dark. Sorry guys for got my camera today.
Title: Re: Morning scouting trip
Post by: Mr T on August 28, 2010, 10:44:03 AM: Thanks Slayer...I will be in that area in about a week for some archery hunting. Was hoping for a little more movement in the morning, but will have to make it work
