I didn't think you could hunt either of those units with a raffle tag

( I cant see the video, just going off of the report)

I wonder if it was really a raffle tag.  The author of the article could have gotten the term wrong instead of saying special permit maybe they incorrectly said "raffle".  :dunno:

I guess it could be the Manson tag.  I forgot about that unit in Chelan county.    Cool for him.   Something I have dreamed about since his age or before.   Lucky young man.

It looks like he got several things wrong on the story.  It appears to be "State Record for HIS AGE".   The Ram is nice, but to me it doesn't look like a state record over all.  Unless I am missing something with the scoring.  It appears to be 3/4 or slightly better curl. 
All this said, I am not trying to do the young man a dis-service, by knocking his Ram.  I think it is a heck of an animal, but the terminology in the news is flawed.  And I think Bone is correct in that it would be Manson tag based on the pictures and the knowledge of the other tags being filled already.
