Report: Very dry, Very crunchy. Tag soup. 11.5 days of boot work. Got a lot of good scouting done for next time. I did find where several mature bucks where hanging out. But never got close enought to see antler. Not suprising most of the bucks where in areas with no one else making boot tracks. Sometimes in beds watching passing road hunters. Where the bucks are, it will take moisture to quite my foot steps. Total buck sitings 2 1yr old spikes, 1 2yr old spork. I did spot one probable mature buck at first light one day, As soon as I spotted him at about 600yds, A truck drove down a road behind me about 800yrds. As soon as he heard the gravel crunching, he took off at a full sprint. Road hunters have the deer very well educated, By the time a buck reaches 6-7yrs of age He is very road smart. The illegal road drivers where thick. The new MVUM rules where completely ignored by most. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------support your local guzzlers. OHA life member,lapine oregon
