Gotta be careful though which units you're hunting on November 21st. Entiat you can't because of the Nov 21-30 archery permit. Other units like Chiwawa and Slide Ridge have a December 1-8 archery season, and others have a November 25-30 muzzleloader season. But there's definitely plenty of opportunity in Chelan and Okanogan county units in late November/ early December.

I get the hunter in this thread will be using a rifle but for others isn't that the case?

Even if it were me, I wouldn't waste my time hunting with anything but a rifle.
Just read through the info. Looks like it IS a statewide tag, but you have to report which region you are hunting in right before you hunt. If you want to change regions, just have to call and let them know.
So am I understanding this correctly? If there is not an archery or muzzle season open at a certain time, he can still rifle hunt even if there isnt a rifle season in progress? I know if it is an archery or muzzle season, he has to be weapon appropriate.
I think the hardest part will be keeping him from shooting a doe! He is a meat hunter! We are gonna hold the bullets!
It has changed since last year. He already has his permit. Had to pay $60. Just has to report the region he will be hunting just before he hunts. He can change regions, just has to call in. Probably wont have to stray too far from the cabin tho.
My hunting partner called me last week and said, "You are not going to believe this, but my dad drew an Incentive Deer Permit!" So he gets to hunt all seasons, in ANY unit in Wa State, including special permit units, as long as he uses the weapon of the season. Looks like we have our work cut out. Choices, choices... We are leaning toward rifle hunts in late November for mule deer in areas accessible by truck because his ol man is in his mid 70s and doesnt get around real well. We have a place to stay in Entiat, which makes it easy for hunting those few units around there, but will travel wherever we need to be. Anybody ever have this tag before? Any Ideas?
He can still shoot a doe if he wants to.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
