chewuch late rifle tag!!!!!!!!!!
« on: June 24, 2010, 04:09:48 PM »
After 12 years of putting in I finally drew a late tag!! Has anybody else had this tag?? And if yes lets hear some stories and pictures if you got them. Friend of mines wife killed a hog in that unit last year. So as you can imagine I cannot wait.

Congratulations! That hog you speak of was in the EHJ and what a deer it was. Please honor that tag, why do people get late tags and then shoot 160 class deer? That makes no sense at all.

I love it when people shoot small bucks with special tags. Makes for bigger bucks when I draw it.


Nice Tag by the way!!!!!

Many people have never seen a 160 buck on the hoof.  There are A LOT of "180" bucks running around out there that go 130 or less.  A trophy is in the eye of the beholder and as JDB said, there are plenty of reasons to shoot other than score.  I've got a couple 140 bucks that most of you guys would give a left nut to shoot

The buck I shot in the Entiat in '04 scored 162 something and I was plenty happy with it. I didn't realize a 160 buck was considered a dink.  :dunno:

A 160 buck is a really nice buck in this state.  That being said, I ate an Entiat archery tag (first time in about 15 years I didn't shoot a buck - knock on wood) because I decided I was looking for that hog.  Passed up a few in the 120 to 140 class range and a bunch in the 110 to 120 range.

Got any pictures of Chewuch bucks Bone?  Would be fun to score them...  or at least drool and daydream... :drool:  Maybe we can make slinger's head explode with anticipation and his tag will go back into the pot.. :chuckle:
