Are you sure its open?  The regs say Sept, Oct and Nov in units that are open to center fire rifle deer and elk season.  It is still Nov.  

Also i look up hunting season page 17 said eastern wa, dec 9 thur dec 15 gmu from 130 to gmu 142 which mean i can't hunt there. So any else i am good to go.  Thanks for warn me and i checked whole book to be sure its all good.

We have plenty, but they need to be eliminated if treed, no treeing just for fun. 


:yike:  look like awsome to shoot them down.  I would love to come this way.  Maybe someday. I am completely busy with my things.    :bash:

Not exactly true Scott, once mid-night 1 Dec rolls around you don't have to worry about whether or not a GMU has an open modern season going on.  1 Dec your legal statewide for night hunting.

Looks that way, good luck!  Like I said after 1 Dec rolls around you can stop worrying about whether a unit has any open modern seasons.  Good luck and kill some big ones!!

When we arrival to a huge huge tree appox 300 yards from turn loose. I have no way to find it with all swamps and branches thicky We spend lots time figure how to get over to huge tree and if this right tree. I hope... since i have to walk thur swamps.  :bash: I would be soo mad if no coon up there. So i pick up a stick and hit hit agasint tree and walk back look up no luck walk all around look for eyes. No luck. So we wait 10 min and walk all around 60 ft to 150 ft from tree. I hope not in a hole up top where big split y branch. 30 min later she said forget it. Let's go... i said noo.... my dog tells me its right tree.  finally we saw very tiny eye and it was like 120 ft high with full branches arounds My wife aim at coon. She said danm lousy flashlight. Can't see where... dang, finally got sec only eye and she aim under face. Try to shoot front neck cuz whole body is back inside. Only way we Could do any best so she pull trigger i was standing 20 ft back from huge tree and hold flashlight up where she can see with scope from 80 ft back from me. I all sudden see something coming down with all powder of snow start to fall all over down and i said whoaaaaa oh noo.... branches kept snapping snapping snapping fast fast it come down i quickly ran away as fast as i can and wrap my arm over head. I stop and all snow falling over us. I said no way what a huge thing up there.  I afraid it was a opossum.   :chuckle:
