Title: GMU 136 Deer Populations?
Post by: Antlershed on June 10, 2009, 05:23:43 PM: I was just wondering what the deer population is like in general for this unit? I will be hunting private land, so I'm not looking for anyone's spot, just some general info. We plan on making a couple trips over there to scout it out before the season as well. We will be rifle hunting, btw. Also, I see the regs list a season for Whitetail. Are there many whitetail in this unit? Thanks.

That's fine. I'd rather shoot a Mule Deer.

Harrington Area is a sleeper lots of nice bucks..gotta do the homework to find public or private land open to hunting..go to the GOHUNT site on WDFW and check the private lands layer to see potential landowners who offer Hunting by written Permission or Feel Free to Hunt..
