Oregon has better hunting, more public land, and less people. If you can, change your residency to Oregon and hunt there, and skip Washington altogether.I can legally change it since I have a home here and work here.

For archery, Oregon has a longer early season. Muzzleloader seasons are more generous and less restrictive in Washington. For modern firearms, basically all of the deer and elk hunting east of the Cascades is by limited quota draws only. Some areas are easy to draw, but the higher quality units usually require a few years of accumulating points. You have to decide, if your ok with not being able to hunt the east side every year to draw the better tags.
Do you know how your decision would effect whether or not you will be paying the Oregon income tax? You might be money ahead by remaining a Washington resident to avoid Oregon's taxes and buy nonresident licenses if you really want to hunt there.
