I drew that hunt in '05 and shot a spike. That's why I wonder why people always refer to those eastside tags as "big bull" tags. You know you can kill a spike too, right?    :chuckle:

don't let anyone discourage you about that tag. it's a very good tag.  in my opinion it's the fourth best tag in Washington State east and west including...not including those modern firearm tags that take place in September them r ridiculously good.  I predict u will harvest a 300+if u spend over 9 days hunting and put at least 2 cams out b4 and during ur hunt...watch.

That is a great tag! Do not settle for a rag bull, there are some studs in there!! Scout scout scout..  Let me fill my archery tag, then I can give you some ideas of where to go....
I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

It doesn't matter what you think...

Go deep and steep. Doesn't have to be too steep though. Best bulls in the 346 are being shot deep into the Norse Peak this year. It has been hit and miss and not so good of a year for bulls being killed as in years past according to a knowledgeable source I talked to on tuesday afternoon.

I'm new to muzzleloading and have shot about 20 shots ever, all of them this year between the range and one shot on a blacktail buck I got but haven't experienced any misfires yet. What is a hang fire? And what do you think caused it? I'm putting about 6 grains of 4f black powder down before my pyrodex pellets as a primer and using RWS German Musket caps in a Vortek strikerfire northwest. Thanks for the help!
