Most WA deer in a single season?

[npaull]

Who thinks they've got the most WA deer in a single season?

Two should be easy.

I think five is possible right? General tag, second deer tag, plus draw the Three Deer lotto?

I've got two before but that's it.

[NOCK NOCK]

Pretty sure some on here are wayyyyyy past that number. JS

[npaull]

Tribal harvest, or what do you mean?

[Lapua07]

General, second, and 3 deprivation permits in WA plus Montana Idaho and all in the same 2017 season.  filled all of them too

1 for me. Never have put in for the second deer tag etc, hell I don’t put in for the Quality tags.😆 I remember one year as a camp, 1937 or 38 we have pictures of 31 hanging, that was just our clan, there was about 6 other families in camp, if I remember right there may have been around 60 or 70 total hanging in Little Bellingham that particular year, I remember my dad telling stories of trick or treating around the camp and seeing all the bucks hanging in the firelight. He would tell that story to his grandkids and great grandkids. What a site that must have been to a little boy who loved to hunt.

That's impressive you can remember things from 86 years ago.  I can barely remember stuff from a couple years ago

😆🤣😆We have a few old pictures, those are treasures.👍 we also have a guy or two that remember the stories around the fire, complete with pen and paper. I highly recommend 👍

Journals are a must. I still pour through these pictures and journals quite often. Some going back to my great grandma. 1915 she and great grandpa came into the Methow. 50, 60, 70 years ago, yes I do remember. I remember seeing stuff only some on here have heard stories of. Sit around a fire, take note. Listen to the stories. Listen to the memories. Take notes of attire, hats and such. Take note of the attitude or the excitement of a young man or AN old man comming into camp. I have been very blessed to have been involved in many.
  Yep, keep track. I will love the memories and the history. It’s some of my most special memories.

I have tagged two twice. One year general and second deer tag. One year general and a hunter education incentive tag. Also tagged two elk one master hunter cow and one raffle bull. The two elk year I also tagged a buck and a bear. 2021 was a good year.

How old are you? I'm not being sarcastic but if you remember hunting in 1937 or 38 you must be at least 90.

See, some of the old timers from the Methow, are a valuable encyclopaedia of wisdom of what hunting was like in its heyday.

 

Just pulling your leg, your knowledge of the Methow is very valuable, to us partimers,

I need to watch my words I guess. I do not remember 38, my dad does/did. He told many stories of those times, I had pen and paper. I also have stories from 1915, I sat around with my great grandma and grandpa. I had pen and paper. I heard stories of great grandma and grandpa coming in from Nebraska. I had pen and paper. I heard stories of grandpa shooting on trap teams with Jack, pictures, yes. I heard stories about a world record Kodiak killed near Olga bay in the 50,s, my great grandmas cousin was one of the hunters. I had pen and paper AND pictures. I remember a bunch of big bucks killed. I have seen them, seen the pictures and heard the stories, all with a pen and paper in my hand, as my great grandmother did in the late 1800,s also. Jack, pick up pen, pick up paper. I know you have kids. Write everything down, I have journals going back to the late 1800,s. Hunting is our heritage, hunting is something that has shaped our country. Do I remember 1938, hell no, but I’m glad I have history, pictures and writings that go there and beyond.  If you have any other questions, just ask. I may be able to help you. FWIW, 1954. Hopefully next time I word things right and don’t mislead.👍

Pictures jack, take lots, write pages. My family has done it for over 100 years. No need to be flip.👍

I’ve got the pictures. Lots and lots of pictures.
Wasn’t trying to be flip… just was wondering how you remembered 1938 like a few others were. Just misunderstood what you were getting at. I get the family memoirs thing. That’s really cool you have that. My family moved out here too, but it wasn’t ~100 years ago.
