Blacktail Wa?

[landis07]

No
Muzzy and modern
I suck with a bow I my as well throw the bow at it as I got a better chance of hitting it

I got my first Blacktail last year with a muzzleloader. I'm hunting 20 gauge slug barrel in centerfire restricted area. Archery elk though. Archery takes a ton of practice constantly!

Some good info on here, thanks everyone. I have a general season rifle tag. From Scouting earlier this year, and recent bear hunts in the 548 area, I’ve seen a good amount of deer bedded on those few high open northern facing slopes. They mill around and then move sw around 0615. The bucks stay bedded a little longer. Good luck everyone

It’s going to be a decent year if we get some “crappy “ good weather aka rain,wind and cold temperatures
Good luck and keep posting!

Anyone hunting elk this weekend?! In the smoke show ?

I got the multiseaon tag this year. I'm missing the high buck this year due to work. Mt. Baker Wilderness. I hunt 418 and 407. I also got Second deer for Lopez Island. I really want a high country buck. Still trying to figure them out. Great thread here. Thanks all!

Awesome , blacktails are beyond difficult to figure out! I can't wait to see some bucks down!

Don't pass up a buck you would shoot on the last day... it tooke years to get one but I get one nearly every year now. get away from people, find the deer. especially in heavy pressured areas, hunt the drainages and holes nobody else does.

 

[landis07]

Big mature blacktail or nothing!
Pass up small bucks let them grow

 

[Jason277]

I've only seen one mature blacktail during hunting season. I never had a chance to let a younger buck pass by. It was the first legal buck deer I've seen in three years. Now I'm screwed.

We usually see some big ones in velvet, week before the opener they’re gone! I also hunt those units but mainly for bear.

Anyone have any muzzleloader success? Last day for early season.

 

[Jason277]

Is anybody seeing any Bucks cruising?

Buddy practically shot one off of a doe Wednesday night out on the Olympic peninsula. I always say the rut starts it get going about now & peaks the next 2 weeks. Hoping to find a dopey one in love in the morning for my boy

Hey guys new to the forum but I like to hunt the shit out of blacktail here in 460 and 454. Passed on quite a few young bucks during early archery but have multi season and drew a second deer tag for 454. Rifle season has been pretty uneventful so far!

I was out on Wednesday morning evening and saw two bucks that were chasing does. I shot one in the evening that was definitely rutting.
