I took two of my brothers-in-law and a sister in law hunting last weekend up in 3-30, got a nice mule buck and now they’re all dead set on getting back out before the end of Nov. I’ve created a monster. Or four monsters, since the sister-in-law wants to bring her friend who did the PAL course with her.

I’d like to take them somewhere with a reasonable chance of success and not somewhere too steep since they have varying levels of fitness.

So to me that means somewhere with all bucks opened in Nov, which isn’t 3-30 and that’s really the only area south of PG that I know well (we live in the LML).

Unit 2 for blacktails somewhere? Somewhere in 8 for whitetail? I’m at a loss. Don’t want your secret spot or anything, but if you have an area/unit that would be a decent bet I’d greatly appreciate it.

Try Princeton.

Haven’t been past manning in a long time - whitetails out that way?

Definitely head to Princeton/Tulameen. Lots of country up there to explore.

Awesome, thank you. Had a few good suggestions via PM along the crowsnest. Seems to be the direction to head.

I’ll be right over.

I really am ignorant of the wildlife in areas 8 and 4. I assume it’s whitetail around Kelowna?
