What would you do with 23 elk points?
« on: March 15, 2011, 07:31:05 PM »
What would you put in for with 23 Washington elk points? And what do you think the odds of draw would be? I have the odds figured on Excel for all quality rifle elk tags, even with that many points odds are not very good. If you normaly hunt West side rifle would you put in West side & go for a nice Rosevelt or put in East & hope to draw giving up the backup plan of Westside general elk? Or maybe hope to draw multiseason to put in East & not give up West as plan B?

Say it aint so, no Quinault? and with 23 points the odds would be all the way up to 4%

I would do the Blues too assuming you know some of that country. If you don't I would still do it assuming you could get some time in to scout or hire a guide. That is some serious country and if you don't know what you're getting into, you will get your ass handed to you. Even if you think you know, go scout some more. Take my word for it. No way in creation would I be burning 23 points on a westside permit.

West side no way....

You have a great chance at taking a bull of a life time. I say go for the East side.........

I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

Knowing what I know and seeing what I've seen, I would stay right here at home in the Peaches.

I have 14 Oregon elk points, 11 Colorado elk points, and 7 Nevada elk points and a decent 6 point Wyoming bull on the wall, so a good Rosevelt is really apealing to me. Probably my only chance at a good Rosevelt. I have shot lots of raghorn Rosevelts but never a good one.
