Tag Talk

Ok lets say you could pick one permit to draw.  What would it be and why?  Keep this one to deer, we'll do the elk on the other forum.

[sisu]

Do you mean a GMU for deer?

[jackelope]

I think he's talking about a special permit...like desert a or the like.

i'm gonna say a late swakane rifle tag, because i've seen the results of what that tag can produce a couple times now.

[bobcat]

If I had to pick one it would be the Desert, just because it's a different type of terrain than all the other mule deer hunts, and I think it would be a fun hunt. Besides, it's the most difficult deer tag in the state to draw, so if I'm choosing it may as well be that one.

had the swakane, and got a amazing deer:) I would love to draw the Entiat for my self. for a bunch of reasons, but the Desert might be really awesome too.

I want that darn raffle tag.
The desert tag would be fun, but I've been applying for Alta for years

[Craig]

I like the Mission unit. I seen some big bucks up there while elk hunting.

I also like the Alta unit.

[WAmuleyHunter]

i want the raffle tag!!! Mission is a great unit, harder to hunt but some really big bucks in there.  Also can anybody give me some details on this Alta unit??

[boneaddict]

You had your chance hoser.  If you were to draw that in the next 5 years, there would be a revolution in Washington state, and it would all be headed your direction.

[boneaddict]

Alta is the west side of the Methow.  The Twisp River borders it to the north.  It used to be a tremendous late season deer hunt for archery, but I think they canned that a few years ago.  It was a unit they put to draw only for about 3 years and it grew some monsters.  Some of the sheds I found were unreal from that time period.  It gets hammered in the general season, I MEAN HAMMERED.  It does however get some migratory bucks, some out of the Navarre country along eastside of Chelan.  Its just like any of the other good tags, harder than hell to draw.

[Ridgerunner]

I would have to say probably the raffle tag, that would open up some country that doesn't have the late hunts.  Desert is intriguing but is it really that good? 

[WDFW-SUX]

Man I wish they would reduce the number of late modern tags in the Methow and add some archery opportunity for some of us.  I send them E-mails every single year and they ignore me.  I don't understand why they raised the tag levels for modern and shafted the archers.  15 for the entire Vally would be fine with me just give me a chance!

I'd take a sheep permit any place they allow it. I'm not picky about where, just gimme  Goat wouldn't be bad either.
