Bow4elk, I hope you know that I really value your opinion whether I agree with you or not.  More times than not I do agree.  From what I have seen on this sight you are one of the least judgemental and most helpgul members ( not to take away from anyone else.)  I took a hunter's safety course in MI about 15 years ago because my family agrees with you on that point and so do I.  I had to call the DNR headquarters back home in order to get a copy to buy a license out here.  If I would have found that deer (good meat or not) I would have notched my tag.  If I really, really felt that he was dead I would also.  If he comes in front of me alive with a buck twice his size, he will be the one I take. All of this I promise. 

To the gentleman who posted that his combo tags only really cost him $18 a piece, that's great.  So let me ask you, if you were deer hunting and wounded one, would you still go elk hunting, or bear hunting, or would you call it quits for all game that year?  Because I don't see any difference.  I do think prices are a little much but I do want you to know that if I had 2 tags like I was saying about MI, that I would only try and fill one at this point. I don't think there is any shortage of deer out here especially on this island.

Yes, if I kill a deer, of course I would still go hunting with my cougar, bear, and elk tags. Why wouldn't I? That's why I purchased them ???

I said wounded the deer.  So you purchased them in case you can't find your deer atleast you get to shoot something else?  Maybe I'm not understanding you because I don't think you understand me.

I think this will be my last post about this subject. I'm not looking to argue with anyone or make anyone mad.  Thanks for all the posts everyone and I'll be sure to post any updates if something new comes about.

Patton and Bobcat, I think you both mis-understood each other.  Patton, the way you worded your question, I get the feeling that you think the "combo tag" is good for just one animal.  In WA you have the option of buying all the tags at a reduced price if you buy them as a package deal......that is what Bobcat is getting at.  So he would still have tags for elk, cougar and bear if he is done deer hunting.

In this state, it is a personal decision about hanging up your weapon and not filling your tag if you wound an animal.  FWIW, I don't think I would notch the tag if I were you based on how you describe things.

Good luck killing a buck.

BTW - Calling Bobcat a gentleman is way too kind for him.  :)
