Title: '10 Muzzy Bucks down
Post by: Morse_FJ40 on October 01, 2010, 09:02:01 AM: Newbie here. This is the first season that both my dad and I choose to hunt for deer with the smokepole. I bought my SS Bighorn last year, and I traded a set of free tires for another 22" SS Bighorn for my dad. Well I tagged out with my 3x4 blacktail, and dad got a 2x3 yesterday. Meet is hanging in a buddies cool to be cut up this coming week. We had a lot of fun hunting the early season, plus it gives us time before we leave for our Modern E. WA elk hunt. Now I have time to go fishing. Here are a couple of pics.

Post by: bobcat on October 01, 2010, 08:13:25 PM: Wow! Good job, we've been hunting all week and having a tough time, with this nice weather. I've passed up some spikes, and did miss a nice 2 point at 65 yards on Sunday, but we've been having trouble findind any bucks at all, other than spikes. What method did you use to get these nice bucks?

Post by: Morse_FJ40 on October 02, 2010, 11:49:54 PM: Thanks guys. We are still pretty tickled about 2 bucks on the pole. The plan is to butcher my buck on monday, and let dad's hang until thurs.

On our way out to meet up with dad to recover his deer, we jumped 2 more deer which the last one was a buck.

Post by: Morse_FJ40 on October 04, 2010, 07:47:20 AM: Bobcat,

My dad was hunting one of his timber land gates on the Oly peninsula. He was working the logging road, glassing the cuts that butted up to reprod. He had seen 3 does, a spike buck he passed on, and a 3 point bull earlier in the week. He went back later in the week and was just about done with his look when he spotted him feeding on some salmon berry leaves at about 20 yards. Boom. Gave me the call, and the family brought the wheel barrow to help in the 1 1/2 walk to the truck. Funny thing was on the way in to get the buck the family and I jumped a buck and a doe. My wife needs to take her hunter safety course.
