Well… we went up Northeast Washington… in search of a Mulie or a White Tail… we were there for 3 days… burrrr most of the mornings were below freezing… but beautiful sunny days… Now we did see some nice animals a bunch of 2x2 and several spikes… lots of does… 2 of the 2x2's has nice thick racks with low to mid 20 baskets… You know, even when you look long and hard ya just can't make them grow that extra point…

The deer were still in rut and chasing/herding the does… fun to watch! We need SNOW, SNOW, SNOW!!!! The animals are starting to come down off the tops but don't know if this is an instinctive thing or just because it is still so dry the only green grass is down in the bottoms…?

My one concern is how many of the lesser buck are rounding up does and breeding because the big boys are staying up high or killed by the Lead Throwers… Don't want to start a fight with the Lead Throwers!!!

I like the fact that the Mulie population is climbing fast and that more 3 point or better bucks are available for the harvesting, but…. Are we jeopardizing the genetic strength of the animals by allowing the lesser bucks to breed and survive?
