What are they going to give me? I want my points back.
At least for me I got a decent bull. Some tag holders probably got cows or rag horns since the Wednesday late season opener. Some of them will probably get home from camp tomorrow and find the letter having already filled their tag. I'm calling them Monday to give them an ear full. I want my points back. Clearly I'm not getting the same opportunity as the other tag holders. WDFW changing the rules after the games already over.
I think my 14 points were wasted... I used 14 quality elk points on a hunt that i couldn't hunt.
Yes... They said we have to wait until the end of the season before they review the hunts and the point restoration.
I'm at a loss for how to explain to a bunch of guys that maybe get an elk every 4 or 5 years that "just happy to get an elk" isn't what I put in for the Margaret unit for. I'd feel like an elk hunting failure if I only got an elk every 4 or 5 years. That's fine for a lot of folks, but not for me. I was happy to pull the trigger on a crowded beat down five day hunt restricted to the NE corner due to fire danger shutdowns. It was more crowded up there than the rifle deer opener. 84 tags all stuck in the backcountry. I'm not happy to find out after the fact that I pulled the trigger on a 2 week hunt in December.You guys just don't get it cause your in the 90% of guys that create the 15% elk success rate in Washington. I'm not saying dont give the guys that still have tags more opportunity. I'm just saying they should compensate all of us. We all were dealt the same dirty hand. I'd be happy with points for those that don't have tags and the extension for the guys that have tags.
