Title: east okanagon 2nd deer tag.
Post by: D-Rock425 on June 11, 2014, 09:45:25 PM: I drew my first ever rifle tag for a 2nd deer tag. I've never shot a deer with a gun so I'll probably just use my bow still. I have a friend with property in the unit so I'll start my hunt there first.

I drew that tag three years ago took me 14 minutes to fill my tag from the porch (actually the wood pile) of the cabin and I looked over 5 deer before shooting the one I chose. Turns out it was the wrong choice as she was full of #6 pellets. We laughed as we skinned her figuring she was in someone's garden a lot but almost all the meat had shot in some part of the meal :yike:. I will certainly be more selective this year my hunting partner and I both drew so we may stretch it out for two weekends but we will see. The first big whitetail doe is mine, but a good shot at a mule deer may change my mind.

Good luck to all the others that drew :hunter:

I would take the challenge if we had a hot tub over there :chuckle: :chuckle:
Sounds like few happy hunters "should" have a few decent chances to fill freezers if all foes well. There are no sure things in WA hunting but I like to chances for sure :tup:.
