Title: Washtucna
Post by: homann441 on June 19, 2023, 02:16:16 PM: I am looking for someone who would be able to help point us in the right direction for the youth Washtucna any deer tag. My 8-year-old son drew and is hoping to get his first buck this year. Any advice is appreciated, I want to try and set him up for success as best as possible for his first hunt and we plan on making a trip over there towards the end of July to get a feel for the area.

Tried it three years ago and went home. Couldn’t believe the number of people. I’m not sure how more people don’t get shot in that area with the shiiiizt that goes on. Really quite sad. I watched two groups of hunters shoot 7-10 times before the buck was hit and killed. The buck was right in between the two groups. That were 300-400 yards apart. :yike: :yike: :yike:

There's quite a bit of oddball public parcels in 284 with walk in access which would be a good place to start looking.
