This is my first year hunting Yotes. Just started at the end of April . Havn't called one in yet, havent shot one yet. Someone wants to take a chance and put me on a team. I will work my ass off.
:bfg:
I've called, got anwers, got 'em coming in, but haven't shot one yet. We could form the "maybe next time" team! :'( :chuckle:

Not sure if we will be doing one this year, the site has to have a permit to run it. So until we get the permits I am not sure if we will be doing one. Same for the waterfowl contest and such.
ummm when did this happen? the state decided it had too many forums with people getting along and having fun so they need to capitalize on it? and if this is true why dont we need a permit for the photo contests? the horns and coyote never paid it was just some braggin rights and a few tokens donated by other members?

A permit for a site to show pictures of coyote kills, and a tally of how many?

Then when you have one to post - it would be 'if' there was a contest, I would enter this picture (and then you post the picture you would 'enter')
But since it wouldn't be a 'real' contest, it would simply be a display of what could be.

I think each team could start their own Topic thread, post their own pics, and keep their own tally. Lots of luck trying to get us all to get a frackin' permit! :chuckle:

I am a mod :chuckle: The only one to talk to is dale. It is his site and he has the final say.

What it boils down to is how will it harm the business that is HW. If it could harm HW then it needs to be looked at from all angles. Hopefully a decision will be made soon.
Personally, I don't think we need one as long as we don't have prizes or fees. Even the Head & Horns doesn't have a prize. A traveling trophy is not something that is owned or have any monetary value.
Post by: bearpaw on September 22, 2011, 02:31:35 AM
I was suppoed to send in for these permits in August and just have been too busy. I should get some breathing room in a few days and
will try to get these contests all squared away. So I am still planning on holding all the H-W contests. The way the WAC reads any contest involving wildlife must have a permit.
WAC 232-12-169
No agency filings affecting this section since 200
Hunting contests.
A person wishing to hold a hunting contest must comply with the following provisions:
(1) Only organizations filed with the state of Washington as a nonprofit corporation may apply for a hunting contest permit.
(2) Hunting contest permit applications shall be submitted to the department 30 days prior to the date for which the contest is proposed.
(3) Applications must include the permit fee required by RCW 77.32.211. The fee will be returned if the permit is denied.
(4) Contests are restricted to the species approved on the permit.
(5) Total value of prizes per contest shall not exceed $2000.
(6) Entry fees or requests for donations are prohibited.
(7) It is unlawful to fail to comply with the conditions of a hunting contest permit.
Hunting contests which may adversely affect wildlife resources will be denied.

As I recall, the reason it went to Nov. was to prevent the "burn out" of the Admin. that was keeping score. If we keep our own tally, Oct. 1 is fine wih me. :twocents:
I think it was actually to wait until modern firearm seasons were over. (ie. some will be chasing deer while others would be getting a head start on their tally)

Modern firearm deer season will be over and we don't have to be out there trying to call with 1000 people out there shooting at everything that moves, it just makes for spooky dogs during deer season. Plus the pelts will be better for those that want fur.

Perhaps you have not seen the truck loads of hunter (???) driving around in the wheat fields shooting at every deer and coyote they see while out drinking and hunting. It gets pretty scary and very crazy when those knuckleheads are out there. I was amazed at the sportsmanship (?) those guys. I have and it ain't pretty.

The last time I hunted the modern season, early '70s, I think, I was glad to get back to the truck alive. I was walking along a hillside and heard bullets flying above my head. I ducked into an island of brush and trees and hunkered down near a tree. A little doe came running down the hill and into the brush I was in and layed down about 30 feet away from me. 3 hunters(?) came down the hill and one of them said "I saw it go this way!" and then they went down over the hill. I looked over at the doe, she saw me, and jumped up, turned and ran back the way she came. I got up and went back to my truck and went home. It was a Bucks Only area.

How many of you modern firearm hunters pass on a yotes while you are after deer? :dunno: I will admit that I generally will take a dog or two during the modern firearm season, unless I am hot on a good buck. I always spend the remainder of my vacation chasing dogs after my deer has been harvested...
I passed up shooting at coyotes a few times while hunting modern season. I wouldn't now, but then I don't deer hunt the modern rifle season any more.

you ain't huntining, unless the lead is flying. Only way I pass up a yote, is if I can see a buck in the area. If not. dead yote, move to a new spot. :hunter:

They don't seem to be quick to answer to calls lately. I figure to lay in ambush quietly on their travel lanes, and get the smart ones out of the way first! :tup:
