Nothing spectacular here. Elk-270 and Deer-204. Haven't spent too much time over in 204, time for some day hikes.

didn't draw any of the special tags I wanted, but did put in for Mule deer district 302 to try something different. We hunt a lot in Blacktail and Sage creek but have never explored the other side of the highway. I need to expand my horizons a little so I thought this would be the year to try something new!

Lightning struck again and I drew the special draw bull elk tag for the area in my back yard, should be another awesome year. That's pretty cool you drew again sneaky, you must have only had 1 bonus point right?

JJ , yes rifle, but I could archery hunt the area, but there is no cover to conceal me accept a Montana decoy. Oh ya zero bonus points also. I drew your tag last year with no pints also. I will definitely hook up with you while I'm back there! How's that buckle? It was pretty cool following it being made, again congrats!

I drew a 261-50 mule deer tag, going to be a great year chasing mule deer with my bow!!! Anyone else draw a 261-50?

You should go buy a lotto tag, that's pretty rare to draw the two tags you have drawn in back to back years with zero points. There is more cover than you think in 426. It would be worth the extra trip in Sept I think. We will definitely have to hook up when you are here, I will introduce you to some ranchers in the area your tag is good for.

Probably don't have to tell you but there is some decent mule deer in 261. That was my first choice and naturally, I drew my third choice.

Yes there are, it should be a great hunt! I work in Corvallis so I should be able to do some great hunts after work. I've been told my best chance at a big buck is with a bow before they get pushed up into the timber during rifle season. Does anyone have any suggestions?

No dice for me. I applied for an archery elk tag that I should have had good odds of drawing but struck out. General it is me for me.
My folks and buddy live in Corvallis. I'll keep my eyes open.
You spend much time in 204?
