My experience with pulling special permits has not been super eventful. I pull a permit for a specific GMU and species and during a specific timeframe. Then... I spend the summer scouting the GMU and preparing for the week or so the permit allows for. really straightforward. I was very lucky and just got noticed that I have pulled a Hunter ed instructor tag for any deer in Region 5. That is any deer during any open season or special permit season.
Now my "problem" is that I have so many hunt choices that I am like a kid in a candy shop. There are so many options...and only one hunter. So much land, so many places to hunt. I am really wanting to make sure that I don't screw up any quality seasons for those who pull those quality deer permits, but, because those are very limited permits, I don't think it will be much of a problem. Been a few years since I have hunted in the 500 gmus and hope to equal my bucks of the past out of Battleground. This is going to be unique and really fun as I probably won't have this type of a special permit ever again. I am getting a little taste of what it must be like to get one of the raffle tags or reporting incentive tags.
