Title: palouse
Post by: buglebuster on October 25, 2012, 10:50:58 PM: First of all, I really hate to be that guy, but i feel as if i have been around here long enough, and gave my fair share of input to justify this posting. This is what this website is for anyways right :dunno:

I was one of the 750 people to draw a Palouse late whitetail tag units 127-142. I usually hunt the 145 area. I originally had a huge chunk of land secured in the Steptoe unit but that fell through. I am having a hard time securing private land for this hunt, and it is getting to be crunch time. I have made 2 trips down to the area knocking on doors with no luck. Have scoured maps, and while i was down there i looked at a few pieces of public land that didnt look promising at all. I have my uncle, who lives in Spokane working on getting me onto some land in the Cheney unit, but not sure how that is going to turn out.

Does anyone have any info they are willing to share with me? Anything and everything helps! Thanks a bunch guys!
