Yep, they're becoming abundant in the Cle Elum area. In fact that's one of the moose hunts I applied for this year.

Huh?
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

And you didn't get drawn?   You were most likely the only applicant.

No I didn't! I was just as surprised as you. I didn't hear of anyone else applying for it so thought for sure I'd draw with my 17 points.    :dunno:

I wonder if the Yakamas can hunt the Cle Elum moose?

I drew the only tag this year. Obviously, with the hatred people have towards those lucky enough to draw I haven't wanted to post about it. I can tell you that it went 50+".  :tup:

PS - I drew with two points. Doesn't that just prove how bad our draw system in Washington is?

I know this will rile up some members, but I guess I'll just go ahead and post one picture anyway. Let the complainers and internet sheriffs have at it. One thing: I took off my orange vest before taking the picture.

No way that moose goes 50"+.  I am no expert scorer, but on Hunt Wa I pretend to be. :chuckle:

I figured that.  I used to have trailcam pics of him along with his buddy that is much bigger.  I sure hope I can draw that Cle Elum permit one day before the wolves get to the really big one. :o

I saw five wolves the day I killed my bull. Good luck on drawing that permit before the herd goes downhill.
