Personally, I don't think as many people are going to use the extra tags.  I drew one during the second chance drawing and won't be going out.

I am not sure how they think they can predict something for it happens but you would think they would wait and see how many deer show up before dishing out all the extra tags .. But then again that would most likely  cause problems too ! I guess if they waited until the deer showed up in hundreds and had a slaughter that would make the front page of the paper and all we would hear about is how bad the hunters are ....that may still happen anyway  :dunno:  I do not have a problem with killing some doe but I think the doe tags they already had would have been enough  :dunno:

We have 3 of the doe tags and are staying on the Westside.  My daughter was so looking forward to this hunt prior to the fires and the redraw.  It was going to be a chance to harvest some good eating whitetails but now are staying home hunting local.

 No issues with targetting whitetails, go get your daughter one, or two or three. :tup:

The guys that are complaining about giving out tags now are the same guys that would be complaining this winter that WDFW should have given out tags if there is a bad winter kill.  This is a damned if you do damned if you don't problem.  The only way that this would work out is if we have a light winter and with no extra tags issued.

What people don't think about is a lot of people in positions to make the rules don't really want us hunters out hunting anyways. Thry just want the woods to be a place for people to visit I guess or leave alone all together. Hence reintroduction of wolves and the over abundance of antlerless tags, also shortened seasons. Make the hunting suck and not so many hunters anymore. Also the price of tags and the new permit program, it says right on the website it was designed to increase profits which they call revenue. They almost treat the environment like a science experiment even though guys who have hunted there for 30 years and notice a giant decline in deer numbers and hunt quality say otherwise. It's like the wolves helping the Beavers and the trout, Ya right....Just my 2cents...
