I somehow managed not to draw a mule deer tag in Oregon, Idaho, Montana or Wyoming. I did manage to draw elk tags in Oregon and Idaho. Thinking about going over to the west side of the state and hunt Blacktails, that is an over the counter hunt. It’s been years since I hunted them but one of my nieces is a forester over there and has offered to guide me. She cant say that without laughing. It would be fun. I may just hunt bears and scout for elk however. The unit I’m hunting elk in Oregon is essentially my backyard. I can throw my kit in my truck and be driving into the unit in about 10 minutes. The Idaho unit is 3 1/2 hours from the house.
My dogs are too old for much of a hunt anymore and most of the areas we have hunted chukar and pheasants for the last 60 years has burned to the ground this week. Will go look for pockets of ground that may hold chukars and will definitely have to go explore some new places.
I’ll do a little exploring down in Arizona for quail if /when we get down there this year. It’ll be important to stay near home this fall.
