Just bought my multi season deer. I was on the fence cause I put in for Montana deer. But I would be upset if I didn’t get Montana and drew the Multiseason deer

I really hope the wdfw gets their crap together and starts giving us dates for draws. It can’t be that hard to give a certain date other states are capable of doing it. Hopefully this week :rolleyes:

About an hour before traffic on this site blows up.

Final commission meeting was this weekend to finalize the rules and regs.  With that out of the way the drawing and results should happen in the next couple of weeks as well as the official release of the rules and regs.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

This is my last year buying multi deer.  And i drew multi elk last year finally, so im back to 0 point and not applying again.  If they want me to keep giving them my hard earned money every year, theyll have to start taking steps to fix our declining herds.  Unless they get the ball rolling on predator management, next year i intend to buy nothing but an archery deer license and a freshwater fishing license.  No special permit apps, no elk, no bear, no cougar.  Screw em.  Ill spend my time bowhunting deer, calling coyotes, and catching trout.  That will be roughly $75 they get from me, instead of the $400 - $2000 i normally put in their pockets each year.

I didn't apply for multi deer or elk in WA this year.  I will "multi" in MT for both where they call it a general tag.

I know many, many people that are taking these stances, not buying anything extra until the WDFW does something to reduce the over abundance of predators in this state and concentrate their efforts and money on rebuilding our herds and putting forth a better product for the hunters in this state, they are taking their money out of state, some is quite substantial and is money this WDFW is not going to receive, like Bango stated some are in the $2,000 range. I have never purchased anything more than a resident hunting lic., fishing lic. and a deer tag ,hunting and scouting the Methow my whole life has been pretty much a year round event that in my past took up 8-10 months out of the year, a lot of time was invested and it always paid off with dividends but not anymore unfortunately. The only extra I will buy is cougar and bear tags, if I can I will not even purchase a deer tag this year. Its sad to think that I may need to hunt out of state for the first time in my life but the way this state has mis-managed our herds has me pondering that option. Its very sad to look back and remember all the times myself and family went to the Game Dept. folks we knew during bad winters and loaded our rigs with feed pellets and be directed where to take them to feed the deer, literally tons of food back in the days or stopping by the game managers place to pick up packets of bitter brush seeds or even seedlings to plant while out hunting, fishing, scouting or hiking, all the bitter brush we planted in the Methow, the time, blood sweat and tears that were put in by many only to see this particular herd and others in this state be hung out to dry and be dropped into the cellar as far as being priorities now days. I don't blame any for not wanting to give any extra of their hard earned money to this WDFW, unfortunately this is what THEY(WDFW) have EARNED and they need to own it and fix it to EARN back the trust and confidence of the sportsmen and women of this state, I truly hope it does happen, at least in my kids and grandkids lifetimes.... :twocents:

Deer odds are pretty good but I'm going into this draw with three points and never opted for the points option. That's right, I'm pretty much the best at not drawing lol

I've had the tag in my pocket most septembers though from.buying leftovers.
I'm also going in with 3 our luck seems to be about the same.
