Youth Elk

[Elkterd]

My daughter drew her first elk tag ,a youth grays river cow tag in Feb., she also drew a huckleberry youth deer tag, and a roosevelt second deer tag,  not bad for a thirteen year olds first draw, she had three points in all catagories.

Congrats, that will be good experience for her, and meat on the table.

Nice job, good luck.

My daughter has 3 points across the board and went 0/16.

That is a bummer, the kids should get more opportunities, my daughter was really excited for her elk tag, her brother was zero draw across the board.

 Really cool! MY daughter drew a 2nd tag and my son drew the Grays River tag in January. Nothing like hunting with your kids. Have fun!

Haven't you noticed over the last 20 years that the youth have gotten a lot more opportunities?  Special youth only draws, Special youth only general seasons allowing them better chances at success, not to mention the chance to participate in nearly all the rest of the seasons and draws as everybody else. While I encourage wdfw to get the kids involved more and more because they are the future,  I also remember 30 years ago when none of these opportunities existed for the youth of Washington.  Be thankful they have extended opportunities they have these days that we never did.

Good Luck to all the kids who drew and enjoy as parents this time with them, and yes MTNMuley it is awesome the youth oppurtunity that the game dept. has offered them, my kids have have benefitted greatly with the tags they have drwn over the years.
