They are giving out 40 archery permits for a 5 day hunt august 30-sept 3 and 25 permits rifle any bull october 29-nov 2. The rifle hunt would be fantastic but there will only 1 non-resident tag. I wouldn't spend the points for a 5 day archery hunt, especially non-rut.

yeah kinda got screwed on the archery thing. oh well. they're still averaging like 350 class bulls.

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.

The top end we saw was in the 350 class. The last couple of years the success has dropped off, in 06 it was 10%. My hunting partner ended up eating his tag. The cougar was a bonus to an unsuccessful elk hunt. Saw some toad bucks!

I've got 10 Oregon points. Drew the Exp. forest for archery the first time they had a hunt there in 97 I believe. Are the regs out now? I'm torn on where to put in.
