Who drew a muzzy blues tag?
« on: June 08, 2012, 10:51:00 PM »
It seems us muzzy guys are pretty quiet about these tags, I'm just curious if  you drew. Pm me if you want. I put in for tucannan and wenaha, but after waiting 17 years to draw a quality elk tag, I think I'm done with this bs. Next year just might be the blues watershed with a buddy, 45 tags and low applicants... I'm all over it.

I know you are talking about bulls, but I drew the late cow and the late white tail buck.

My dad put in for watershed the last 16 years, this year put in elsewhere. 17 points and still no draw. Guy I talked to last year said a lot of guys shot small branch bull. If you do get drawn hike way down in there!

I was in the watershed last year with a buddy that drew (8points). Very demanding ground, but beautiful elk country. Sounds like your dad has the same luck as me, I shouldn't be but I'm surprised he didn't draw with that many points and tags given out. That sucks. I think guys shoot smaller bulls because of the terrain, after two days hiking in there they just want to get there bull and go home. I bet half of the guys don't even hunt it after the first weekend. We ended up with a nice bull, but we did see bigger ones.

I agree. I don't know if he knows what he's in for.

PathfinderJR and I drew late cow muzzy tags for Blue Creek.  We'll start talking to landowners this week.  We put in for the tag on a tip from a friend of ours that farms, so we'll start with him.  I am of the opinion that the muzzy bull tags are the best in the state.  When I am up cutting firewood a week after archery season ends, the bulls are going nuts...

Since that is open to mf, ml and archery at the same time can you exchange your tag for a modern tag?  I wouldn't wanna hunt in there with a bow with rifle hunters running around.

I don't think you can.  I stopped applying for the Shed when I started hunting archery for that reason.  You are right, that's gonna be a tough hunt with a bow.  Competeing with 44 other guys, all carrying rifles...not during the rut...can't spend the night in the unit...

My buddy drew the shed a couple years ago and I'm still trying to drag myself out of there.
