That's a real nice offer. To bad it's not the Naches or Taneum. I'll offer the same after my archery hunt.

I recognize that kicker off the left side of that bull in the first two picks.  That gene has been passed down for quite some time, picked up a shed about 14 years ago like that one.  3 years ago my partner drew that tag and I had one with a kicker like that at 55 yards, head down feeding no clue I was there.....

I drew the 340 & 342 units for the 3rd week in Sept. I have not hunted those units before but drove thru the 340 once to bring out a Little Naches bull that my friend shot near the north boundary of that unit. Shoot me a pm if you have any info.

excellent photo's
these are the type of things that I really enjoy seeing here the feeling of being of some help to some one else regardless of your own circumstances.
alot of people would keep a secret like this and hope they draw next year or the year after....
of course all hunters are liars of some sort we never tell "the exactly where" to most casual acquaintances we meet on the trail or the road but only to those that have some genuine character that take the time to be friendly over a season or 2 stopping by even when you know they camp over 5 miles away and then some. even the ones that are right around the corner can do it.
Every one here has met this type of guy who will help you drag your elk out even though he only met you 2 days after season opened.
I know I have.
And I have done the same.

 not sure about 342 but 340 rocks. Usually when someone says there are no animals in a unit, or the area has gone to crap, or  little green people stole all the deer. what they mean is " IM TOO LAZY TO GIT OUT OF MY TRUCK AND MY FAT ASS DIDENT SEE ANY ANIMALS AS I DROVE THREW. if you hunt you will see animals. git out of your damn truck.

What is confusing to me is that I also have pics of these elk and I recocnize the area. It is not area 340 I hate to tell you. I would check the regs a little closer my friends. Nice ploy though...I must give you props for clearing your area out and sending all the road hunters towards the jeepers ) nicely done bro :o

      you my friend are a idiot! that is 340! you are wrong! you have no idea what you are talking about!  you also have no idea were the pics were taken! i took the first person to contact me to the spot. he has seen the area, the animals and the cameras, still hooked to the tree. when he kills his big o bull he will post a pic of it im sure of that. nice try in getting info from me though. if you needed help i would have thrown you a bone!!!  :P :'( :'( :'(

OR GIT OFF YOUR ATV.

I've more than once, had a stalk busted by a "hunter" on an ATV WAY off the ATV or 4WD tracks.  Same with Turkey hunting in the same area in the spring.  SOME IDJITS dont seem to understand that part.

I live next to 340 and 342. There are some nice animals in these units if one is willing to put in the time and get off their atv's.
Turkeys and bear too

Three day's and counting hope some of those bulls are still in the area. Looks like we will have some good weather. Good luck everyone.

I wish I had a branch bull tag.  In GMU 340 my lil bro called in a bull to 20 yds.   :'(
I've seen lots of cows but no shots.  Starting to wonder if I'm going to fill my tag this year.  I'm giving it a few days to settle down before I go back in.

Post by: coachcw on September 21, 2009, 08:35:51 PM
sounds like you had some good action , did you stay up high most of the time?
Title: Re: DID YOU DRAW ?340-342 maybe i can help!!!
Post by: Turkeyman on September 22, 2009, 05:34:48 AM
Coach we hunted low the first four day's got into bulls every day. all the bulls came in silent and fast. The herd bulls would grunt/chuckle and push cows but that's what they do. Allot of action the first four days then the weekend crowed showed up and the elk shut up. ran into hunters every where. We then went high in 340 same thing people every where. Hiked into manashtach Lk. / Lost Lk. had a bull going before we hit the lake his cows busted us. when we got to the lake there was three tents set up by the lake. Went to 342 seen two nice bucks one 4x4 and a big 3x3.

sounds like a good hunt though , lets not lose focas of why we hunt right . It's cool to see game of all types. plus you get to hunt the late season right? the hunters everywhere dose drive me crazy, I quit doing to much scouting since it aleays gets screwed up come the season. the bulls we saw most just came in as the rut started . I had one bull that wasn't preasured buggling till 1pm in 80 degree heat Crazy.
