I have a feeling this area of washington is being overhunted. 30 years ago there just weren't the deer populations in this area and now it does have a good population however with population increases comes hunter pressure increase. Last year for example the private property I was on had 15 bucks come off of it openening morning alone...this year 1. I passed up numerous legal bucks last year because I would just love to see some of these dinker three points grow to potential but passing them up just turns out to mean someone else is going to shoot them. I passed up two legal bucks this year and will go empty handed for this season but I feel good knowing that there are at least two bucks that have a chance to grow for next year. With success down in this area I have to believe that the kill success was just too great last year. I would like to know if anybody else reading this happened to hunt the Washtucna area and if so what you thought about this season.
