Archery hunters being phased out...
dreamingbig:
As we all know, GMU 356 has been switched to a spike only unit for early archery. Now on top of that the amount of bull permits was slashed to 60 for this year!
While upsetting, it would be a lot more tolerable if the other user groups felt the same. However there are now more opportunities for muzzleloader and modern firearm than archery. Please explain???
Modern firearm has a spike only season, plus 55 bull tags, 1 special rut tag and 15 anterless tags; total special permit is 71
Muzzleloader has a spike only season, plus 10 bull tags and 25 anterless tags; total special permit is 35.
Where are the Archery anterless permit opportunities? I understand that rifle and muzzleloader hunters are probably high fiving each other but bowhunters better take notice. This is just the beginning!

they dont want to disturb the rifle hunters in september with all of us stick flingers...

I just read about the new changes...Have you looked at the deer seasons? We are getting it from every direction. They are cutting tags for archery everywhere. Whats the Deal.

I know perhaps an antlerless tag or two would be grand... but still sounds like there are opportunites to be had. I think there will always be a place for archers here in WA.
