If there was was public land to hunt in this state that might work.The problem is our public lands are over pressured from hunters tired of paying hunter fees to timber company's.Thats why no hunters are hunting this state.
Bango's comments actually make alot of sense to me. I did see in the proposals that the early desert quality tag would now open on the same day as the general deer season(plus waterfowl). So much for being a quality experience if you draw that tag. It should open a week later than the general like it always has.
Why do all other states game management work but this one.Also why are no other states devided for elk.
I truelly love It if you had to pick a gmu for deer or elk and when those tags are gone sorry for your luck , and as much as I love the deer multi season I think they should have way less tags, and I totally agree with bango on the pick a species of deer

But the main problem is that the WDFW doesn't spend enough time improving habitat. I've only seen a few areas where they actually planted protein sources. There are also too many areas that are inaccessible due to overgrowth which encourages hunters to congregate around the same entrances. The state has plenty of public land, it just isn't managed for hunters. They pretty much just log it and don't care about deer habitat.
Yeah, thats the point.

If you rationed by gmu the state would have to lottery some areas. They would love that.Which species are you trying to protect here? Mule deer? Just get rid of scoped rifles in GMUs by freeways. No more lucking out by the road.
