Labor Day Combo Hunt

[HellsCanyon]

What a great hunt!
I'm beginning to think Washington is a sleeper state for Deer, you guys have been posting pics of some nice Deer.

Mac-D has the body of a horse and his rack still looks huge. I hope you are able to get him this season, sounds like your ready

Very few and very far between but we def have some nice bucks around... I know some guys that have trailcams in the high country and have pics of 50+ bucks in one area but nothing over 145ish.

Nice!

 

[Justin Crossley]

Thanks guys, it was a blast.

Like Mike said, we do have some nice bucks but they are hard to find.

I think Brock, littlebuf and myself saw around 20 bucks last weekend and Mac-D was the only one over 150".

 

[Justin Crossley]

Well Brock A, littlebuf and myself are heading back out this weekend for more mule deer action. We leave first thing tomorrow morning! Should be a good time.

I'm trading in the ole stick & string for my .270. Freezer is empty ;-). Did some shooting at Justin's last night to make sure my gun is still on since I haven't shot it since last Oct. Anything from 0-300 yards better watch out!

 

[HellsCanyon]

Glad to hear it guys! Is this hike going to suck???

Good luck guys. I hope somebody puts the smack on Mac-D. I am leaving in a couple hours, I hope the weather isn't too bad.

Mike

Yeah Mike, it is.

Ken, we aren't going after Mac-D because of the weather.

 

[Brock A]

Justin said I was gay but I'm pretty sure this will be the best damn trip yet!

Brock,
As long as we hunt hard (and I know you will) I don't care what kind of pretty boy drink you enjoy for breakfast! We are definitely going to have a great time no matter what!

I just cut the snow collar, sleeping bag divider and bladder pocket out of my brand new Kifaru T1!

When it arrived today it weighed exactly 5# 15.2 oz. before I cut it. I won't have a chance to weigh it again until we get back from our trip.

my sleeping bag divider weighed 4oz once hacked, would guess snow collar about the same

That is a bit "San Fran" there Brock.... it's alright though I'm sure the bucks won't judge you...

[Brock A]

Somewhere in there. I can see my breathe. Coffee is good up here, even for dinner.

Weather turned real nice at about 4am for this hike out. Rain/snow shit sandwich with a side of stiff wind.

Sounds perfect to find a buck to take out with you.
