Our custom tailored Deer hunts are conducted for the most part in the foothills of the scenic and majestic North Cascade mountains, both on the East side and West side of the mountains, by either John Koenig of John's Guide Service or one of two hand selected area guides.

On the morning of your hunt you will be met either by John or one of our other guides to discuss the plan of the day which may involve a combination of driving, stalking, tree-stand or ground-blind hunting in one of our pre-scouted hunting areas.

All of our local hunting areas are scouted at least once a week to ensure resident game species have not moved on and remain in the area.

Our black-tail deer season begins the first part of September (early archery deer only) for two-point or better or antlerless deer. Hunting during this time is usually done from a tree-stand or ground blind in the lower elevations or by spot and stalk hunting in the higher elevations for higher mountain bucks.
Modern rifle season opens in mid October and is usually done in the foothills of the Cascade mountains in logged off areas for two-point or better buck only deer.
We end our black-tail deer season here with our late archery season beginning in late November. The deer have usually moved down out of the higher elevations by this time to begin their rutting season. Hunting the rut is primarily done from ground blinds and tree stands in pre-selected areas.

Upon completion of your hunt your game will be dressed immediately and caped accordingly to ensure quality and freshness for your trip home.

Whether you choose a single day hunt or a multiple day hunt, all lodging, food, tags and licenses will be your responsibility but we will be happy to help in making arrangements for your stay.

White-tail and Mule deer guided hunts are done during modern-firearm season only. Hunts are guided in the Methow Valley area just east of the North Cascades and should be booked well in advance to insure availability during prime hunting times and to allow ample time to set up lodging and travel arrangements.

By using the Prime Hunting Calendar in conjunction with our other Hunting Related Pages you can assure yourself of being at the right place at the right time when booking your trip.
