Ryderwood is about the only place they gave use this year...Muzzleloaders get washougal and many,many more places to hunt.  I just dont get it!!!  I think we are being ripped off!!  Ryderwood is going to be a freak'n zoo.  All hunters and no game, just like every late season.  Now that I got all that off my chest!!  LOL  It really is'nt fare.

What are you complaining about.   You get 3 of the best units in SW Washinton to hunt.  Willapa Hills, Winston, and Ryderwood are all great hunts in the late season.  Archery hasn't had late season in Washougal for years, it's been for muzzy's.

Are you kidding me  I sure wish they would willapa hills, ryderwood, winston creek for late season muzzy. Heck i wish they would open willapa or winston for our tiny one week early season.

[WDFW Hates ME!!!]

here we go. ML's get this we get screwed again... Cry me a freakin river. We get what? 1 legitimate unit for the early season ryderwood? Bow hunters get every unit? Then they cry about units they get in the late season. Whah freakin whah... Try and get the rifle hunters to give up a few units, that is the fight you should be fighting.

Look at the break down, ML gets 30 percent of the available units, archery gets 65 rifle gets 95. Us Muzzle loaders are the ones that should be crying. Archers get the rut, rifle gets all the area and MLs fit in the middle.

and the rifle hunters still kill each other :

Hey were all hunters reguardless of method. No one group is any better than the other.

[WDFW Hates ME!!!]

Not saying any one os better than the other but the ML's get the shaft.  And the archers are the ones bitching??? I will be an archery hunter next year so maybe i should be quiet...

[bullcanyon]

I won't argue that ml get screwed.  They should give up a few more units so that you are so cramped.  I don't ml hunt, but I do feel for ya.

O.K. I stand corrected!!!  You are right about that, we do get alot but I happen to want late bow in washougal unit.  MZ's hunt the back side of yacolt burn.....like right below gunboot mt.  There is a huge bull there I seen him last week.   It is a 6x6 that is a monster!!  I am just putting it out there.  If some one gets him thank me later.  It is 1 of my favorite places to scout and also hunt.

simple fix...switch hunting method...

i get a kick out of people crying about seasons and who gets what.

its not that hard to take up a new way of hunting and then you can hunt the seasons you want.

 im an archery hunter and for the first time in 8 years im hunting the late season didnt get the bull i wanted. i know when i get soaked in the b.g unit shooting one on our property .i will be thinking i shouldnt have passed up the ones i did o well .    we have great seasons i know if i dont kill a bull early i will shoot a cow maybe if im lucky a bull in the late season ..its the name of the game we ALL get our turn if you want to use your bow and hunt in nov. and have lots of units put on on your orange and take your bow out in rifle season ...lol
