I am 14 and would like to go on a mule deer hunt. I have been with my uncle for deer in Nevada but we didn't get anything

. I have non hunting parents but they support me

. I live in the tacoma area and would like to go on a late season or spring hunt. I'm looking for someone to help me with tags and all that, but if you could go with me that would be great

Good for you pal.

Did you have a particular area in mind or just anywhere there are mule deer?

legrange98 · « **Reply #2 on:** August 28, 2012, 09:30:40 AM »

I would like to stay on the western side

Woodchuck · « **Reply #3 on:** August 28, 2012, 09:36:51 AM »

Gonna be tough to find muleys on that side.

legrange98 · « **Reply #4 on:** August 28, 2012, 09:45:33 AM »

Then i guess i could go to the east then

Woodchuck · « **Reply #5 on:** August 28, 2012, 09:54:51 AM »

Good call

How would you get to the eastside? I ask because there are enough guys on here that make the trek I would bet you could hitch a ride but I would also bet they would want to at least hear it from your parents.

My dad woudl take me. He isnt big on hunting but he said if i could get all the tags and dates together he would take me

Do you have a license?

Do you have a weapon?

Have you read the regs?

Woodchuck · « **Reply #8 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:01:16 AM »

OK cool. Do you guys have a a good tent or camper?

legrange98 · « **Reply #9 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:02:32 AM »

legrange98 · « **Reply #10 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:03:53 AM »

i have a 30-06, i need help with licenses and i have read all the regs.

legrange98 · « **Reply #11 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:15:05 AM »

I was just looking at the GoHunt map and have any of you guys hunted in 379 or 381?

Woodchuck · « **Reply #12 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:20:02 AM »

So have you taken a firearm safety class?

deaner · « **Reply #13 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:21:14 AM »

hunters ed class?

legrange98 · « **Reply #14 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:21:52 AM »

I have taken hunter safety

Woodchuck · « **Reply #15 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:29:57 AM »

Sweet man, sounds like you have it. All you need for deer is a tag, they are good statewide.

legrange98 · « **Reply #16 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:39:54 AM »

Thanks man! Has anyone hunted or going to hunt the area north of richland 379 and 381?

Woodchuck · « **Reply #17 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:43:19 AM »

I have not, I hunt a little further east than that but someone should pipe up here, keep bumping this thread to keep it fresh.

legrange98 · « **Reply #18 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:43:51 AM »

where exactly do you hunt?

Woodchuck · « **Reply #19 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:48:26 AM »

I typically stay in the Dayton unit but have been known to venture to a few others

legrange98 · « **Reply #20 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:51:06 AM »

think i could go with you this season?

Woodchuck · « **Reply #21 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:53:57 AM »

I am gonna just be a weekend warrior this season but I am happy to help any way I can.

legrange98 · « **Reply #22 on:** August 28, 2012, 10:59:17 AM »

well thanks man!

Woodchuck · « **Reply #23 on:** August 28, 2012, 11:04:41 AM »

Check the "go hunt" for open lands north of Touchet.

One other thing you might consider is that if you have not shot a deer yet gmu's 154 and 162 allow a youth hunter to shoot a whitetail doe on a general tag.

legrange98 · « **Reply #24 on:** August 28, 2012, 11:13:27 AM »

thanks i will look in to that

Woodchuck · « **Reply #25 on:** August 28, 2012, 11:16:07 AM »

feel free to drop me a line anytime if you have any questions. I will answer all I can. Good luck on your hunt.

Woodchuck · « **Reply #26 on:** August 29, 2012, 08:09:52 AM »

TTT to keep fresh for the young man.

jnevs23 · « **Reply #27 on:** August 29, 2012, 10:49:28 AM »

NE corner might not be a bad option. Haven't checked recently but usually a few units are open for youth doe and plenty of areas where you run into whiteys and mulies.

legrange98 · « **Reply #28 on:** August 29, 2012, 05:20:58 PM »

Has anyone hunted the gmu 560 for blacktail?

400out · « **Reply #29 on:** August 29, 2012, 06:10:23 PM »

381 is a better choise than 379!!! pm if interested in a couple spots

Don't want to put to much out on the www!

coyotecrazy · « **Reply #30 on:** September 09, 2012, 09:18:06 PM »

I archery hunt but will help you out any way I can. I live in eastern wa and have a few bucks in mind.

Gunfire · « **Reply #31 on:** September 12, 2012, 05:44:50 PM »

There are no guarantees but I think you would have a much better shot at finding a whitetail over in the NE corner. There are lots of deer and the regulations are pretty generous with does/any buck for youth hunters.

Have your father call the Spokane Game Dept office at (509) 892-1001 closer to the hunt dates and they can give you a list of landowners that have called in that want some deer killed on their property. These landowners will be helpful (especially for a youth hunter) and point you in the right direction.

Youth General Seasons
White-tailed Deer
Oct. 13-26 Unit 124 Any deer
Oct. 18-21 Units 101, 105, 108, 111, 113 Any deer
Oct. 13-21 Units 127–142, 145, 154, Deer Area 1010, and 172–178 3 pt. min. or antlerless
Oct. 18-21 Units 117, 121 4 pt. min. or antlerless
Nov. 10-19 Deer Area 1050 Any deer
Nov. 10-19 Deer Areas 1060, 1070, and 1080 Anterless only

Next year, be sure to get your license in the spring so you can put in for some special tag youth hunts as well. My boys have drawn three youth doe tags so far and a youth moose tag this year.

Any legal deer is a good deer. Go get 'em!
