I drew the peaches ridge archery bull elk tag this year and was wondering if anyone thought it would be worth buying the multiseason deer tag? are there any nice bucks? I usually hunt deer with modern tackle in SW. Also, will there be many archery deer hunters in 346? thanks

You had to buy the multi-season tag by August 1st.
You could try to buy it when they go back on sale tomorrow.

Looking at the harvest statistics, I think you're probably going to be ok for deer in 346. Not a whole lot of deer taken in those units. I have trail cameras up for my son's muzzy cow hunt in 346 and have seen a total of 2 deer...neither of them legal (forky and a doe). There are deer there, but not in very large numbers.
-
Might be worth it. This is a 346 buck from probably 2010. Not a ton of deer in numbers during the early season but you could always stumble across one.
-
There are decent deer there. Why not go for the multi too and give yourself all the opportunities. You'll kick yourself if a dandy shows up and you don't have the tag.
-
I would not! You have a great bull tag that you have a tremendous chance at harvesting a great bull. That said, I would focus my efforts on that animal.
Good Luck!

Go for the bull and dont let deer get in ur way. Yes uvwill prob. see a few bucks vut dont wast your time on the bucks and put your energy to getting a bull

I wouldn't. I wouldn't want the distraction, or spend the money.
