Saw that 454 was open for deer hunting and it's any buck. Where are you hunt in that GMU with rifle's. Heard it was bow only. If you know anything about the restrictions could you please help me out.

Be careful going shotgun or muzzy.  Many of the areas in that GMU while allowed to use restricted weapons under WDFW rules are actually 'No Shooting' zones established by local laws.  My folks live in the unit, and outside the city, but King county still does not allow the discharge of firearms where they live, thus if I were to hunt there it would be bow only.
