What is up fellow Washington hunters! I've been inspired by @The Ri Guy 's recent post of a beautiful Washington Mule Deer to get a post started for us PNW hunters to share some success stories.
This is my buck from this year. Ditched the lowland sagebrush and set off to the mountains in search of bigger and better bucks yielded my best Mulie to date. Steep, dry country and a few ridges between myself and the nearest road meant a profound lack of hunting pressure that was well worth the effort of a heavy pack out. Currently reading Robby Denning's book on how to kill bigger mule deer and I'll tell you what, passing on bucks like this in search of older bucks will be a challenge. Washington gets a bad rap but there are still some quality deer here. Post 'em if you got 'em!
