We need to have 3 separate types of tags: whitetail, blacktail, and mule deer. You have to choose. I also feel like there should be a quota by way of a draw for mule deer.

Disagree. Hunting different species is the only good thing about Washington deer. It also allows me to be selective about only taking mature bucks because I don’t have to fill my tag during general mulie season.

Eliminate doe tags unless over management objectives, open season on eastern Wa wolves, dogs back for lions, and bait or more spring opportunities for bear. Hunters need to stop letting coyotes walk. If numbers are way down in a unit close it to hunting for a year or don’t offer late tags.

Some good points. Too many doe tags for the young, old, and special draw.  Changes reversed on all voted in restrictions on dogs, cats and bait. If you see a coyote while hunting, and you don’t try to kill it, do everybody else a favor, and give yourself a time out for the rest of the day, please.
MAGA, Never give up.

Hunting has been harder this year but its not all doom and gloom. Yes changes need to happen but I saw lots of deer this year. There still out there just have to put luck on your side by by hunting hard.

we also have a 2018 post your deer thread on here. 35 pages long as of today and there is 1 mature whitetail buck posted. I am sure there will be a few added as we approach the rut for whitetails, but it says something about the population in this state today.

Not sure that matters one iota when WDFW openly says they manage for opportunity and not quality.
