Title: High buck hunters?
Post by: actionshooter on September 16, 2010, 09:58:22 AM: I wonder if those guys are hating life right now with the weather? I was a little jealous cause I couldn't go...............maybe not so much anymore. :chuckle:

I was just thinking this morning, I hope it's not like this for the early muzzleloader deer season. A little rain is a good thing but this is ridiculous.

They are saying it could be a pretty snowy winter. But we live in Washington so who really knows. I just hope it isn't like the winter we had a while back where we had 90 days strait of measureable precipitation. :bash:

The truth is I would rather be hudled up under a tarp next to a fire than sit at home every day. I just got laid off on Monday so I would have had plenty of time to hunt.

Saw 4 huge bucks monday and tuesday evening. 4 bears. Needless to say it was wet wet wet the rest of the time. Yes the animals were all hunkered down in the thick stuff that you couldn't get too. Oh well It was fun. They will only be bigger next year. >:(
