I've said it for years and still believe it,they planned our seasons to one factor and that is to protect the states resources at the same time as charging us to be more and more limited to being successful ,short seasons roads closed and oh ya !!! darn wolves, just Washington state hunting lottery that's the way I see it but don't get me wrong ,I'm all in because this is where I live and complain so sorry I'm nowhere ne'er giving up at all !!and remember !folks if its grey light it up and make tomorrow a brighter day,just another big bad wolf nursery rhyme !!

:bash:but my point being,calling in the rimrock area where I spend my time,is bassiccally a thing of the past because the elk there are silent mostly all season because they know people are (ALLLLLLWAYS THERE !)ITS A RECREATIONAL AREA EVEN WHEN WE HUNT IT, so all I been doing is moveing through the woods before dawn waiting to here branches being broken then give a suttle cow call,bugling is just not practical there anymore,but still I'm all in !!
