Ever consider looking at buying a chunk of land either here or in a neighboring state? At that price point I bet you could buy up some land and manage it yourself. Just a thought.

Why spend that kind of money on a lease when you could out that money toward out of state draws or buy general tags and then hire an outfitter to get you into quality bucks?

We like to guide ourselves sort of speak. We arent picky about where at. Any state would work for us. Got a tip about another state that rides under the radar Im currently checking into. Most likely we will be pulling our hunting money out of this state in the near future.

If I dont draw anything in WA this year, I may not be applying again for any special hunts here. The fees and licenses were almost 300 bucks for me alone this year. Sorry but this state just doesnt have anything open during general season worth paying out of state license rates for. Esp. With my odds getting worse every year I apply

How did you keep it under $300?  Fishing/hunting license and apps over $500 without throwing wife into the mix.  Won't be adding any access fees for WA.

Not sure about that... I paid non-res deer prices for the general season in WA a few years back and am quite pleased with the result.  A little work, a little luck, and things can happen.  There are quality animals out there.

Dialed...somewhat.  A little luck always helps though (that is with any hunt).   What area (state) did you end up deciding on?

Nice.  I'll be hunting up on the CO side of the WY border this year.   With any luck I'll be hunting WY as well.  C'mon June 22nd.
