Did anyone not draw multiseason deer?

Draw odds certaintly won't be helped with all these tags.  That's for sure.

I had it last year and now again this year but last year it was fun to go out and not have the pressure to shoot when you see a descent buck because you have all the time in the world and not tons of pressure. Now there are going to be a lot of people out their flinnging arrows that have no right to even touch a bow let alone hunt that are going to wound quiet a few animals not to mention the rifle season i feel bad for anyone that chooses to hunt rifle this year its going to be a sh*t show for sure and it really is not a good way to take kids out and show them what hunting is all about when there is orange in every direction you look. But guess we have to thank our greedy state who cant seem to figure out how to manage anything.

Why did you even apply if it's going to be such a "sh*tshow"? You guys are acting like it's something that anyone can buy and there's gonna be a million people out there. I think it's a great opportunity to be able to check out the different seasons. I'm a modern guy but have been wanting to try archery. Would I give up my rifle hunt to TRY bowhunting? No. I don't really understand what the big deal is? Just a bunch of whiners who do NOTHING but b*tch about this state. Try your luck elsewhere if you don't like the rules. I, for one, am stoked to have this OPPORTUNITY!   

Pretty well said.  Also, "most" of the people seeking to expand their hunting opportunities and willing pay the $180 extra dollars are "generally" dedicated hunters that probably won't be adding to the pumpkin patch and flinging arrows at 80 yards.

So am I but I don't want you modern sh*t show guys hunting my archery season just like after we both get skunked for sept your not gonna wanna see me f'n your hunt up.  Good luck to all the modern hunters who wanna "try" archery.  Shoot straight.

DIY, so you now personally own the archery season??? I know several entire families that have archery hunted since forever who brag every year that they "stuck 3" but didn't find them. They weren't rifle guys who switched. It's not hard to understand that once you switch to archery you have a 40-50 yard limitation, no running shots, and you need to practice a lot. You act like all rifle guys are pigs, which simply is not the case. There are unethical people in all user groups. And if the "*censored* show rifle guys" ruin your deer spot by showing up, then your spot isn't very secret anyway. When I have the multiseason, I carry my bow when I'm scouting for muzzleloader season. I've made several stalks, got into range, and decided not to shoot for whatever reason. It was fun anyway.

I drew like everyone else.  I put in for it so that if I drew, I could apply for some of the more difficult hunts to draw with all weapons rather than just one.  If I don't draw a cool hunt then I don't buy the tag.

Its absolutely worth the extra cash to me. I work so I can hunt. In relative terms its a great deal compared to an out of state tags but everyone has their own preferences. I wish people wouldn't put in for tags if they don't plan on going through with out just cuts out a chance for the next guy.

Either way I am stoked I got drawn for a deer tag. Cheers!

Im not here to complain i think its great for those that will be responsible enough to take the time to practice but i have worked at a sporting store and seen people come in literally two days before season and buy a archery target and they said they havent shot all year and it just goes to show no matter what season u hunt there are going to be a few people who do not give the animal their all and go for an ethical kill and with this it will increase it but like i said i had it last year and it was a lot of fun for me because i normally archery hunt i actually killed my deer during rifle season and it was a blast so who ever does choose to buy it i hope that they take the time to practice with what ever weapon the choose and become good at it so they can do it the right way instead of making us all look bad

And divided we fall

this must be good news for all the local archery shops; more customer$

since I didn't draw the multi elk, probably buy the deer multi. And still archery hunt AZ in Jan 2013.

So, after reading through these posts, there are a few things that are very clear. The state is a bunch of money hungry whores. Quality, late rifle buck tag odds are going to suck even worse.

Don't be mad you can't kill deer out of your truck    Your not gonna do any better driving around during archery season.  Just take your money cut it up and flush it cause I don't want to see you fumbling around in the woods spookin all my deer up.

What makes you think rifle hunters are the only ones that road hunt?? I know a *censored* load of archery hunters, and a majority of them road hunt also!!I believe we all pay the same amount of money to enjoy the sport of hunting and here you are basically saying your the only one able to archery hunt, and when its archery season all the deer are yours??

[BOWHUNTER45]

hey men ..sometimes road hunting is a way to cover alot of ground and here in Washington we have alot of road hunters ....There are different way to define road hunting ...I get in my truck and run logging roads and stop and check out clearcuts or what have ya .. when I am looking for blacktail I want to cover as much land as possible and alot of times I run a circle and always keep going back to where I started ..many times I pull up on a clearcut at first light and see nothen and around 11am return to find a big old buck looking right at me  :tup:and for those who love bragging about wounding animals all the time they need to keep comments like that to their selves    I seriously can not see how someone could be proud of letting an animal get away and go to waste !!!

the tag should be free if drawn, what will happen when the state starts charging extra for your quality tags say an extra $500 for a quality buck tag if drawn, when you draw a quality tag you are rewarded but the multi season you are punished
