Post by: Fullabull on September 03, 2010, 01:43:11 PM: I just found out I have $5k worth of work to get done on my truck before I leave on Wednesday. I get my truck back on Tuesday. I guess the work will be tested quickly. I think I'll show up at the shop in my camo and holding my bow...so if it's not done :archery_smiley:

I told him I need it because this I took my son out of school Thursday and Friday for this hunt. Luckely my dad is bringing his truck up as a backup.

See you out that...

Title: Re: Who's going to be in the field Tuesday morning?
Post by: flashover52 on September 05, 2010, 04:16:32 PM: Leaving tomorrow afternoon as soon as the baby sitter arrives to watch the kids till mom gets home. Truck is packed.....although the maps are still out.

Unable to hunt the usual spot as my partners switched to muzzy this year and I can't pack in by myself that far. I'll be by myself and I'm still trying to decide whether to hunt Manastash, Little Naches or somewhere in between......

Will be out the 7th-9th, back to home for my kids first day of school on the 10th, maybe a couple of day trips the 11th/12th, watch the kids on the 13th, then back out in the field on the 14th till the 19th.

I scored a multi-tag so if I don't get anything, I've still got time left.....
Title: Re: Who's going to be in the field Tuesday morning?
Post by: clhutner on September 06, 2010, 11:27:07 AM: I wish!! cannot hunt except for the weekends. But that is definitely better than not getting out at all. Good luck to everyone and stay safe!!!!!!!!
Title: Re: Who's going to be in the field Tuesday morning?
Post by: lokidog on September 06, 2010, 11:38:28 AM: Can't either, have to boat my daughter over to Lopez Is. for HS every day now. I hate hunting weekends on public ground. Not sure I'll even get out. Tried modern last year because of a messed up elbow but have the bow tag this year. It is hard to scout from the island and when you are self-employed, you gotta work when the work is there.... :(

Post by: WonkyWapiti on September 06, 2010, 03:42:57 PM: Goodbye all, I'm heading out in an hour! Good luck to one and all. :IBCOOL:

Post by: PolarBear on September 07, 2010, 10:25:45 AM: I was in the field this morning at daybreak smack dab in the middle of a bunch of cows. Angus cows that is. :chuckle: Got a bunch of elk in the pasture on and off all week but not a legal bull in the bunch. I suspect that the shooting that my wife heard the other night was the demise of the 5 point herd bull. >:(

Wouldnt surprise me one bit. A few locals from here at work heard shots over night, still waiting to hear back if it had anything to do with the massive elk heard out here in Snoqualmie..
