I just found out that the friend of mine I mentioned above had drawn with his hunting partner I was wrong.

They actually decided to put in seperately to improve their odds and they both still drew! I figured they had applied as a party.

Talk about luck.

Cousin and I drew rifle tags. Put in as individuals and figured would be lucky if one of us drew. Never figured we both would. If anyone would like to PM me and give a few pointers it would be appreciated. Not looking for any secrets spots or such, just a general idea of what to expect. Thank you. Tony   :hello:

Redbeard ~ I don't think this hunts been around long enough for there to be any secret spots but if you shoot my a p.m. a little closer to the season maybe I can point you in the right direction as to where they are and what you might/might not want to be shooting. There's still a little growth to be had and I don't like to be in the good spots until bear season but I have a feeling that one or two nice ones might have survived last year  ;)

I drew a elk and deer tag at least that's what it says so far.My first choice was the archery tag for Nooksack then Ethel,Newaukum,and Margaret.  :dunno: So I will have to wait to see which one it is. I can only hope it's Nooksack ,already
told the boss if I get that tag I'm taking the whole season off.Wish me luck  Mark

Mark,

Just like Coon Dog says:

If you go to the WDFW hunting home page you can enter your 11 digit WILD number and find the exact unit you were drawn for. I just tried it and it said their server was unavailable so I'm not sure what's going right now.

Yeah I tried and it was unaviable I think the whole state is accessing the site so it's probably overloaded right now. I'll keep trying back every so often and when I find out anything I'll post it. Thanks alot for the info :hello:

There are a few secret spots that the bulls like to rut in every year, a little scouting a research and you will fiqure them out.  Oh ya Danny Cox from Sedro also drew a Muzzleloader tag, I think it was muzzleloader, lucky dogs.  If anyone needs a little assistance when the time comes shoot me a PM, I went up with 3 of last years tag holders and seen some real good bulls, probably start videoing them soon!

It's a shame timber companies can't get landowner permits like they do on some of the eastside ranches so I wouldn't have to sit here and wait like everybody else for my turn to draw a tag :'( maybe I need to talk to the accountant :chuckle: I guess there's always next year.....

Yeah james he drew a muzzleloader.  I am pumped for him.

Are there any bulls left after last years slame dunk???? :dunno: :dunno:

Post by: Huckleberry on July 28, 2008, 10:04:05 PM
I heard a rumor flying around that if keys were passed out they might not allow for full access ~ just to the inner gates. Might make for a little more rewarding hunt rather than just shooting them off the road :twocents:
