Title: Banner year in the making!
Post by: 180-GRAIN on June 10, 2016, 10:50:14 AM: Family is set up for a hell of a year! I drew a muzzy colockum cow tag which I may not even hunt now, heres why. I called the brother in law who I have been schooling through the permit applications now for a whopping 2 years and he says so is Wenaha east muzzy a good tag? :bash: Long story short he drew that permit with 2 points! Then the old man calls and says look up my results. I punch in his numbers and under quality elk it says drawn for wenaha west rifle! his made more sense with 18 points but wow 2 awesome bull hunts to go help on and top it off with the wife drawing a late chiwawa rifle tag and its looking like a banner year for the family!

Yeah the 2 point thing had me shocked I called B.S on that and had to check myself. We applied for the same hunt and me having 15 points I thought I had a better chance but what do I know :chuckle:. Im pumped for him though should be fun even though it putts an end to my colockum cow hunt. I will just have to settle for spikes in the wenaha.

Two years in a row for Chiwawa, maybe the kids and I will see you up there again! We're supposed to swing from El Nino to a hard La Nina in late summer/early fall, so maybe that will bring some early snow.

Yes hope to see you all up there again. I have a Colorado tag to fill first so we are hitting the last 4 days of the season. My wife's pumped! She won't have to try to hard to beat my buck from last year lol.

Nevermind theres not even a spike hunt for muzzy in the Wenaha! Just went through the regs. Oh well I guess im just a pack mule for this trip.
