Hey Dan-o,

I know your son, I was just talking with him Sunday about his goat tag and giving him a hard time about thinking about not hunting!

Tough choice for sure. You have a great kid.


Hmmmmm.....   Interesting.   Now my curiosity is very peaked about how/where you talked to my kid......

Do you have a kid that's going to go to MSU?

If so, we might want to have a dad-to-dad talk about a few good things I've learned.    Worthwhile discussion if you want.

He's been to a few of our church events with his friend Spencer. We were at Spencer's house Sunday when he stopped by to pick him up on their way to the Mariners game. We were talking hunting and he mentioned his dilemma.

Oh man! That is a character building choice, there!  Bright side is, if he decides to go to china and not fill his tag, he can keep applying and get drawn in another 20 yrs or so. ;)

If that was my son I would bribe him with another trip to China....it would happen faster than getting drawn for the 3rd time  :chuckle:

The goat season runs 30 days. The trip to China is 10. I don't see a problem here :chuckle:

I hope he makes a decision soon because if he turns the tag back in that won't give the alternate much time to get ready or get any information or get in shape.

Sorry about that. I was thinking it was one of the eastside tags.

Katmai Guy - Just sent you a PM.  I'm helping Dan's son with his hunt and would like to compare notes.

My daughter has the other Mt WA B tag.  Good luck to you guys.  Some tough country but hopefully the goats will cooperate and be in accessible locations.

Elkpack, tough country is an understatement.  Any tips?
