Olympic Bull Down

MLBowhunting,
Don't get upset, your thread became more than "just" a successful hunt thread, it helped educate a number of hunters, myself included.  You should be proud that you have furthered ethical and legal hunting in this state.  I know I learned something, and as a new hunter that is the entire game for me right now, learn as much as I can.  For that I thank you and the members here that clarified a reg that is more vague than an elk in the mist...

Only in Washington can a three point, that is actually a 4X3, become a spike.  One of the most stupidly written regulations in this state.  I understand the spike restriction was to help hunters who did not see a brow tine when they did their best to follow the rules.  But the "originating above the ear" rule on branched antler elk is crazy.  It's a 3X4!  Would be a 3X3 if it did not have the extra fork (which it does btw).  Regulation needs to be rewritten or thrown out.
