Title: Any Blues late mule deer permits?
Post by: jackelope on June 14, 2016, 05:24:11 PM: Seems like this is my annual post-draws questionnaire thread.

Did anyone draw any of the late Blue Mountains GMU's mule deer permits?

I think at least a portion of what you say is pretty accurate.

I had the mule deer late permit in the Tucannon in 2010. Not sure I've ever seen another thread on the forum about any of these hunts. The year after my hunt, they made it any buck 3point or better. There were definitely not a lot of deer to be found in the Tucannon but it only takes one I guess.
