Kitsap GMU 627 (Green and Gold mountian)

[mrstorms]

Hello all. I have been trying to go hunting for the past 4 years but something has always come up (the navy). This deer archery season will probably be the only chance I really get this year and I was wondering if there was anybody out there that has hunted Green or Gold mountian in Seabeck,WA with any luck within the past two years. I am just asking to know if it would even be worth trying to scout it out. Thanks for reading this post.

One of my coworkers got a deer up there a couple years ago on Green I think, they certainly are up there

I hunted just south of there off Bear Creek Dewatto last week. LOTS of sign and I found where they were bedding. Beds were still warm when I got there, but it's my first year bow hunting and my first time going to any of these spots, so I wasn't exactly stealthy. I tracked my coordinates whenever I found deer, so if you want them, just shoot me a PM. Good luck out there. Let me know what you see because I'll be going back in a week or two.

Kool. Thanks for the reply guys. I'll let you know if I get/see anything.

I have been hunting the bear creek/dewatto area for about 10 years. It is a good area. Always new clear cuts there every year. I had 2 co-workers hunting that area with muzzy and both were successful about 3 years ago. The only problem is well I least I think is the area gets ALOT of pressure. So keep that in mind. Good luck.

I live and hunt in seabeck, but right up by the marina instead of where you are gonna be. I think it's a great spot. There's rumors of elk in the green mountain watershed but it's illegal to be in there so it doesn't matter.

Green Mountain watershed? Bremerton watershed has had rumors of a small elk herd for years. There have been a couple times in the last 30 years that elk have been in Port Orchard. I live right next to the watershed and have seen no sign of Elk but you never know I guess.
As to the original poster sorry I'm late seeing this. My property backs up to the Pope Resource land and I am back there frequently. Plenty of deer, just need to be in place before they start moving from bedding to feeding areas. If your walking around in a clear cut it's going to be difficult to sneak within range of a Blacktail without it knowing your there. Rifle/muzzy is more forgiving in that respect.

An elk was killed up on the hood canal bridge by a car. One in P.O. also I think. And I thought it was the green mountain watershed they were in but I'm probably wrong.

There is so much good information on this website, I am continually surprised and pleased by what I learn. So it was interesting to hear of elk in the Green Mt. area. I saw two elk like rumps heading into the brush hunting in that area a few months ago.

  get em! I think there's a season for Kitsap so if they aren't in the watershed then they're fair game.

[MADMAX]

you'd be better off across the hood canal bridge

 

[predatorG]

Or on it. Ik at least one has been killed there.

Have seen a couple elk across the bridge and a few more near discovery bay. Two years ago I was deer hunting and found a carcass of a cow elk that was shot in the coyle near horseshoe lake. Quite a few poachers though in the area as I've seen a few more "body dumps" there was one where they shot it cut of the head and left it in the middle of the fricken road. Anyway there are elk in the coyle but very few. I think its bs on the gold mountain area though no way there's elk there.

There are decent numbers of deer in Kitsap, but as has been stated before there is a lot of pressure in most areas you can hunt.  Its worth hunting, just take your time and put your time in.  If you do that you have a chance.  Same thing with Coyle, plenty of deer, plenty of pressure but you have a chance if you put your time in. 

As for the elk in the Belfair area, there have always been rumors of elk in there but they sure arent seen by many people.

We did see a lone bull in PO about 25-30 years ago when I was growing up.  It crossed the street one night at the intersection of Jackson and Lund and went in to the woods where the AM-PM is now.  That was also when that intersection was a 4 way stop and not a light  .  My dad went back in there with a flashlight and saw him again.  He wanted to get another look at it and make sure he hadnt gone crazy.  He called the game dept to report it and they blew him off.  Basically said he had had too much to drink and laughed him off.  Over the course of the next couple of weeks more people reported an elk in town and if I remember correctly they tranquilized it in someones pasture with some horses somewhere around Lund a couple of weeks later.  It was big news, even made the Port Orchard Independent!  lol.
