is there really no muzzleloader Elk season in Unit 572?
« on: August 02, 2013, 01:43:44 PM »
I've been going blind, looking at the regulations booklet, but it looks like there is no general muzzleloader season for Elk in unit 572.

1) Am I just not seeing it?
2) Is it a misprint?
3) Or is it true there is no general muzzle loader season in 572? If so, does anybody know why?

Regards,

David

1. Nothing to see.
2. Not a misprint; no print at all.
3. True. Because muzzy hunters are simply an irritant to Dave Ware and he wishes them no good will; or
    seasons/gmus to hunt in.

Thanks gents.  That really is not cool at all, because I live right on the border of 568 and 572. That would get real awkward if an elk was standing in the wrong place.

If you look again, you'll see that there are more GMU's that dont have a muzzleloader season than GMU's that do. It's just the way it is. It's not because the WDFW doesn't like people who choose to hunt with a muzzleloader.

You do still have the option of hunting 572 with your muzzleloader- you'll just have to do so with a modern firearm tag and during modern firearm season.
