And I saw a couple of WHOPPER single or loner does this year that would have yielded a nice pile of meat and helped the herd out. The rules, as written, tie my hands and cause too many medium sized bucks with room to grow bigger to be shot.

I think I can answer for myself. I have not hunted since I moved to WA. Part of that was 52 weeks a year of 65 to 70 hour work weeks. Part has been health. I shot a fork the last season I was in OR. and that was while watching the monster.


Curious what Manlickers excuse(s) will be....


So should I be banned for life because I worked hard and then became disabled? Do I have your permit I on to ever hunt again?

Your replies to a simply post about what animals someone would choose to harvest have been pretty harsh.

Perhaps before I post again I should ask for you OK and then ask you what opinions I am aloud.

Just interesting how those in the bleachers seem to know everything about the game. Must be all that reading about it.

GW, as a matter of fact I am legally handicapped and can hunt from my quad or 4WD truck if I need to. I have a disabled hunter ID etc. Why is that a big deal to you?

FWIW, I should be UN handicapped, health and mobility-wise, sometime in the next couple of years of I get a Kidney transplant soon.

I see several posts in this thread wherin you try to talk down to other posters here, do you any substance to ad to the thread here, or just gonna sit back and throw poop balls and think you are being tough?

Yeah, draw the too few given doe tag and hunt one of the private ranches I have permission to hunt on. Not hard, just have to get the states blessing. THAT part, is, IMO too damned hard. Many more doe permits need to be given and the stupid little forkies and spike bucks should become fair game too as I see it. We saw a good number of extra large does this year. Typically by themselves VS in with a herd.

How about you? Have any pointers to share or real info to add to this thread? Your poop balls are not having any effect. And your last couple of attempts to flame or bash or roast someone are pretty pathetic. Maybe try adding some real content for a change. Now THAT is an idea, or "pointer" for you.....

Quite clear that you are flat out of ammo and really scraping the bottom of your barrel, wit or flame-wise. But then, it wasn't much of a barrel to begin with, was it?

As I posted earlier in this thread I made my first deer hunting trip in 1964. You hunting back that far? I have seen the woods at least once in my life and am pretty sure I would recognize it again. It may surprise you I even know what deer and elk look like. Last bunch of deer I watched was Thursday. But I didn't kill any last week so I guess I am no longer qualified to say anything about them in your eyes.

Sad state when a simple posting of a question about hunting and harvesting becomes a name calling match. But what would I know, I'm a new guy around here and could never know as much as you.

Any thread about actual hunting is gonna become about people instead of game pretty quickly.

It's easy to see which members don't have much to offer a conversation about actual, real life HUNTING. They're gonna talk about theirselves....... of someone else.

Now....... back to the CONVERSATION...

One thing that hasn't been mentioned is that the Boss Buck in the pasture may not have the most desirable antlers. Deer are not impressed by B&C scores. Body size trumps antler size as far as a pecking order.

But... each year on large ranches a few Trophy Bucks are killed in fights with other Trophy bucks. The killer will be a young, slender horned, buck who runs in a rams a sharp horn into the gut of one of the two large combatants.

[I don't know if GOOGLE will confirm that, so I could be lyin']
