blue mts permit
« on: March 20, 2011, 01:40:53 PM »
Anyone on here draw the blue mts foothills east permit last year? (i think that is what it's called)  It is the late whitetail hunt around Dayton.  I don't remember seeing anyone post anything up about it.  Just curious, and sitting here at work killing time thinking about the upcoming season.  I will have 10 points going into this years drawing for the "buck" hunt and only 1 point for "quality" buck.  Obviously, my odds are a little better for "buck".

With 10 pts you shouldn't have a problem drawing that permit, that's one of the funnest hunts around, I've always tagged out with that permit, matter of fact everyone I know that's ever had it just about has tagged out.  Last season I know of 4 guys who tagged out and the year before 2 others I know tagged out.  You want Blue mt foothills west though for the area around Dayton, it's the better of the 2 and has more tags available

I knew it was west that I wanted....It was published as East in the regs, and I just found the online corrections.   :bash:  Good to hear that its one of the funnest hunts you've had!  I am not to worried about tagging out.  I was just curious as to what kind of experiences guys had during this hunt.  I have never hunted late whitetails.  Hoping to get drawn, as my general season won't be happening.  My wife's due date is October 16th!!!

p.s. with 10 points you should draw one in your sleep.

Thanks!  I should have known something was up when I came home to a nice dinner and a drink waiting for me.  :chuckle:  
Personally I think she looked ahead on the calander and planned it that way knowing full well I wouldn't catch on until it was too late.   :chuckle:
I think I've had her double check her and the Doctors math twice already.

Nice buck 400out!  I have seen a few solid bucks running around the hills there.  Actually missed a pretty nice one two seasons ago during general.  Good luck pulling one of the permits Jackelope.

Problem is that with the new draw rules, everyone and their dog has a bunch of points for the "Buck" hunts.  That tag used to be in the same pool as the tags that are "quality" now.  I think that means that a LOT of people will be putting in for the Blue Mountain Foothills hunts (both east and west).  Yes, used to be a shoe-in if you had 10 points.  I doubt that is the case anymore... :dunno:

Your probably right Pathfinder, that's why I'll be putting in for the ML permit.  I like the dates better anyways.
