Nice pics guys! Shed dogs are defintley a new concept to me and I am by no means an expert trainer. My past dogs have all been bird dogs so I've hesitated to train them on hunting something else besides. I haven't hunted birds too much the last couple years so I figured I'd work with them on...
Do both if you can...if not and you have time to scout this summer I would do the first week. Turn up a good and he should be there on the 15th.
Last week can be hit or miss. Most years it seems like we get a pretty good snow storm the first week in Oct. A few years ago I hunted the last few...

E Idaho snowpack is still near 100% of average without much snow in the lower elevations so I think we are on track to fill reseviors. Spring rains will be huge this year to replenish the lower wintering grounds.
I've gone out 3 or 4 times the last few weeks. I think the deer look great. Spread...
I live in Idaho and hunt Colorado as well. No doubt COL overall is better for mule deer. I think in your situation I would choose the state that might be closer or easier for you to scout in the summer or early fall. That will be key.
With 0 PP's and rifle there's a good chance you'd be...
