Title: I screwed up and drew Cowiche early archery!
Post by: Elkslayer on June 15, 2011, 04:56:32 PM: I could of swore I had Wenaha down as my first choice but according to WDFW it was Cowichie. Oh well I am more familiar with Cowichie anyways and also have some friends that hunt it religiously during the muzzle season. Looking forward to a great season!

Had a great time, could have taken home some smaller bulls but thats not what I was there for. I think the weather really screwed things up this year. Then again maybe it was just me cause I see plenty of others on this site got the job done on some dandys.
I had a nice opportunity on a big 6x6 at 50yds but he won that round. That why its called hunting and not shooting. All in all it was a great hunt, some awesome scenery from that unit and I think I probably saw the same black fox that Weatherbyfan posted in the photography section.
I think this year is gonna be exceptional for the smokepole guys down there!
Now im gonna have to wait till late season up here and go after this guy!
