Hello everyone and thanks in advance for any help / advice.
I'm an adult onset hunter living in SE Washington and have been "hunting" (camping with a weapon) for the last 4-5 years now. Sort of trying the self-taught route but considering a guide in the next year or two if I can't make it happen. The last couple years I've found a public area that's not heavily hunted and I've seen legal deer both years but just didn't get the opportunity to make an ethical shot. I'm familiar with the idea of hunting funnels and pinch points between feeding and bedding areas but I guess I'm having trouble identifying the funnel and pinch points in the area I'm seeing deer.
Sort of a rambly post, but if anyone in eastern WA wants to help a 30 year old hunter out, I'm all ears. I do alright waterfowling which I'm also new to, but have struggled with big game hunting. Regardless, I've enjoyed my time out and will continue heading out / funding WDFW with my tags, haha.
