Well I hope everyone is having a successful and happy hunting season.. It is the time to be jolly.. HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL AND MAY GOD BLESS EVEYONE....

Well I must say that there is no reason for me to complain on how this year is going as far as the outdoor adventure. My boys and I have cought well over 100 salmon and on SEPT. 13 2009 I filled my deer tag with a 2x3 blacktail which has an outside spread of 19 1/2 inches.. LOTS OF MASS AND DOUBLE EYE GUARDS... I usually dont try to take deer this early because I am a rut hunter but when this buck walked out I thought he was at least a 4 point.. I didnt look at him good enough because he looked huge.. Dont get me wrong ; this is a really nice buck and we are talking blacktail deer which everyone thinks they are small.. Well where I live in NW WASHINGTON these deer dress out between 110 AND sometimes over 200 lbs. This buck was around 160 to 180 lbs. Most hunters never heard of a blacktail deer and they are under rated and if anyone wants to put there hunting skills to the test then I RECOMMEND YOU GIVE IT A TRY... I f you can kill a mature blacktail then you have really done something because I guarantee ;; you can throw the whitetail thing out the door. When I moved out to WA. from P.A I would sit for days trying to hunt these deer and ounce I figured out I had to basically cover alot of ground and spot and stalk ; I then BECAME SUCCESSFUL.. I hunt everything that way now. There is no better rush than sneaking up on your pray and taking it with a stick and string..... Well our freezer is on the way of being full So hpefully we can bag up another elk for the wall and I wish EVERYONE A SUCCESSFUL HUNTING SEASON AND REMEMBER , HUNT SAFE - BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET AND HAVE FUN........
