Title: Road hunting at 45mph?
Post by: Ryan308 on October 22, 2011, 07:09:04 PM: I just spent most of the day in the Snoqualmie Hancock tree farm and I didn't see anything but does. I am fairly new to deer hunting and was trying to figure out how going that fast is doing you or any other hunter any good. I am probably not going fast enough with my music loud and hooting out the window to see the bucks. Learn something new everyday.

Not interested in seeing them from the road, need to get to my parking spot and get out and walk.
