Wow that didn't take very long. Guys lets keep all the negative comments to your self on this years gov. buck tag. Lets just be happy for him and wish him good luck

Woodywsu I can't be leave you have a pic of this buck and if you do please keep to your self and if you know who the hunter is all so keep it to your self. The hunter really wouldn't like his name giving out or the area that he will be hunting in or the buck he is going after.

Thanks Brandon

$26K was cheap for the WA deer tag. At SLC for the Mule Deer Foundation and SFW convention this weekend, the Arizona gov. mule deer tag went for $220,000 and the Utah gov. mule deer tag went for $225,000. A couple of Henry mtn. mule deer tags in Utah brought $100,000 each and the Nevada gov. mule deer tag went for $80,000. Still a few guys out there willing to pay big bucks for big bucks.

Are the animals these people targeting on private lands or not open to general season hunting? I could see someone putting up the cash for an animal they couldn't hunt with a general season tag... wish I had that money in the first place!
The tag does not include special access.  It does not allow killing of deer that others hunters could not legally kill in appropriate seasons.  It does provide a longer season.
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.

I hope he get's what he's after and the money stays out of the general fund.
