Idaho White Tail.

[JR]

Went on our annual Northern Idaho meat hunt and lucked out on day 1 with this fella, stopping long enough for a round to put him the ranger, Good looking 8 pointer(eastern count) for the area and glad I was ready and made a great shot..2 more to go so back to the woods we go??

Awesome. Congrats!

That's a goodun! Just curious if you are finding any dead deer where you are hunting? We ended up filling our tags but saw less deer than normal and found quite a few carcasses. Like you, we have made an annual pilgrimage to northern Idaho for a couple decades now to hunt whitetails. Not only is it a meat hunt but a dang fun hunt! Good luck on the rest of your tags. -----SS

Here's my haul from this year.

I wish I could hit 'Like' a thousand times on this post!! I actually wrote a post on a different forum about this exact subject.....does anyone really hunt anymore just for fun or tradition even if there are not 'trophy' deer around every corner? I find that those who do are the happiest hunters in the world.

I hope you enjoy the rest of your hunt walking sacred ground with loved ones, present and departed.

Thanks for sharing with us!----SS

Well it's official, we are tagged out in 3 consecutive days in the woods, My buddy is and always will be a meat hunter so when this buck presented a perfect shot he didn't hesitate.. Making memories with some special friends is priceless.. no matter how the hunt turns out?????

Yep! Idaho is a million miles from California.

 

[AB16]

Lol, in terms of how Idaho treats their hunters/fishers and people in general they beat the heck out of Ca any day

Sad thing is it will be just as crowded in 5 more years with sportsmen. Every one is getting the hell out of Commiefornia, and moving here. And i can't really blame em..
