2024 Buck Hunts
« on: December 18, 2023, 01:30:32 PM »
I am moving out of the state in the near future. I have 18 points in the buck deer category and I am going to start branching out and applying for different hunts than I have been. Has anyone had a really fun “buck” hunt that they would be willing to let me know about? Maybe theres one im over looking? Just PM me as I dont want anything betting blown up from my post. Fun doesnt necessarily mean a hunt you saw huge deer on…opportunity is by far the most fun aspect of hunting for me. Thanks in advance.

Even with 18 points, its still a draw. Yes, you will have a little "better" odds in some units but none are a slam dunk so if it were me and I was leaving soon, I would apply for the units I wanted to hunt regardless of odds. Send it

Understood. What if none of them really sound that great and you just want to use your points before you move? Even the one I was holding out for isnt that good. I just want to use up my points.

No tag is easy to draw many many people have even more points and don’t draw

Dont I know it. If you add up my points across the west its way more than I care to admit. Thanks for the reminder.

With the amount of applicants and the amount of points they each have, you are still less than 5% chance odds of drawing most tags. Blue Mt Foothills rifle whitetail tag would probably be a good choice due to the large number of tags offered for that hunt in the Buck category.  I drew it this year with 13 points.   Ritzville would be a hard tag to draw with the low amount of tags and the high number of applicants. Good luck!!!
