This is a long shot, I know, but my little boy just got through hunters Ed, and desperately wants to shoot a deer. The places I bowhunt and know are 2-point Buck only units... I'm wondering if any of you know a general area fairly close to Boise I might be able to get him a chance at another deer, doe or buck. I will take him to my usual spot, if I can't figure anything else out, but I know he'd have a better chance in one of the more accommodating units. I'm certainly not looking for anyone's favorite spot, just an idea where I can start looking. Pm me, I know how to keep my mouth shut, and my tag is already filled (archery season) this is just for my son.

Thanks,

Dale

I'd start here for a nice walk.
43 37' 22" N
115 56' 26" W
But any drainage along Lucky Peak and Arrowrock will have does and maybe a forky in them.
Good luck to you and holler if you need anymore info.

So, how'd it go?

Few had a very nice walk in the foothills, but alas, no deer sightings. Plenty of bear poo, though, which got my son very excited! We'll give it another go, soon.

Oh darn. It will only get better as the month rolls on. Avery and I haven't even been out yet. Too hot for me!
