So not that it's past the deadline to put in for tags. Who's willing to tell what they put in for? Since we (masonctyhitman and I) are going to be going strictly muzzy hunting this year. We decided it was pointless to put in for anterless tags. Plus there wasn't much in the way of a buck tag that looked any good to either of us. So we decided it was go big or go home. We decided that we would put in for only quality tags. For Deer we put in for the new Olympic quality deer tag and the Alta tag. Elk we put in for Mudflow and Toutle. Sorry guy's looks like there's two less of these tags for you to draw. Who put in for what. Same as us or different?
-
points only for elk for me, choices were pretty disappointing. :bash:
-
as far as muzzle hunting i drew a multi tag for deer, the only ones i put in for were second deer for rifle and muzzle in my area. no other deer tags i was intrested in for my hunting.
-
Quality Deer point and then late rifle cow and bull for the Teanaway. I'll be working ALL OF Sept, Oct and Nov, so December is the only time i'll get to hunt this year, hope I draw one of those late tags!
-
Mission muzzleloader for late mule deer. The only deer hunt I applied for. With only 2 points I don't have high hopes.
-
when is the drawing?
-
quality buck,doe hunt,cow muzzy in hancock
-
I put in for Entiat archery late quality hunt and antler less. and Colockum archery quality elk. Bighorn sheep in unit 5. All my other special permits I did the points option. they sure know how to get all that extra money from us. I have 7 points for deer and 7 points for elk but like every year I don't plan on getting anything!! :'(
-

Colockum Q elk and Teanaway rifle. I'm in New Mexico in the early season for elk (hoping to go bigger)
-
Points only. I doubt that I will get to do much hunting this year. :ACRY:
-
It's too late to put in for tags? :yike:
-
muzzy q-elk points bull-points anterless elk coweeman and north river 4pts :dunno: might get drawn ive never really hunted elk before at least not seriously.would like to give it a try and these units are close to home.
-
Desert A for deer. Since the the odds are pretty good, It's almost a sure deal :chuckle:
-

Muzzleloader?
-
Sorry about that. I did go Muzzleloader.
-
Muzzleloader elk for you guessed it -- Toutle. I have the E.L.K. Royal Bugle hanging on my door and when my wife is running errands, I practice. I have to close all of the windows though.
-
almost all points for me. The muzzleloaders get screwed in this state. Especially for elk. Maybe one day that will change :bash:
-
deer- chiwawa and entiat quality archery. elk-colockum and tucannon quality archery and then goat moose and sheep were just looking at the numbers and applying

It may have something to do with much of the elk habitat here is much closer to sea level than in MT or CO. Places like the South Rainier GMU average 3000+ feet in altitude while MT&CO are closer to 6000 feet. The elk herds here are much smaller than MT&CO and much more concentrated during bugling season. Just my :twocents:
-
Dayton archery and Dayton Muzzie for Q-elk. Points for deer, and the usual one in a billion chance entries for sheep, moose, and goat :chuckle:
-
I am kicking myself now because i don't think toutle is worth 12 points. I put in for margaret and toutle like i have for the last 12 years, and i wish i would have put in for points for quality. I know if i draw i will have a good hunt but toutle is not worth 12 points anymore.
Also put in for whittier for bull, i don't expect to draw anything though.
-
muzzy quality deer chiwawa and desert 1 point , muzzy buck deer wenaha , muzzy quality elk wenaha west and dayton 10 points. muzzy bull with only 2 choices was a joke ,didnt even waste the money figured the odds would be terrible.
-
quality bull peaches muzzy and taneum cow muzzy. chiwawa quality rifle deer. sheep goat moose, rifle.

I think it is great to put in for those hard to get tags. Sure you may have to wait awhile, but like the lottery no play, no win.
I encourage everyone to keep trying. So you have to wait 10 years or more. Is there some reason you want to get the permit and get it over with? If you are in your 60's, 70's or 80's there may not be so much time left, but the majority are young enough to wait.
BTW if you are on death's door, did you know there are permits for you? I think if you have only 6 months to live or something like that.
-
Q Elk Goose Prairie, Cow in Nile, Cow in Bumping. All muzzle
-
15 points in the wenaha east and west elk quality tag, alkali and swakane for deer.
-
I got drawn for the Hancock Bull tag, so I put in for points only on everything. All my time is going to be spent scouting for Elk.
