I recently found out that the area that I have been hunting for years for elk recently changed the reqs regarding archery hunting. For as long as I can remember there has been an "Archer Only" tag, but you could hunt archery on a type 1 tag as long as you bought the special archery permit, but you only had 15 days to hunt. Whereas the Archery Only had the full month of September. The new reqs propose that in two areas (out of the whole state) you will no longer be able to hunt archery on your rifle tag, the only archery hunting in those areas will be if you draw the Archery Only tag. I don't know the unit # for non-residents but the resident unit numbers are 41&45. Don't know if anyone on here has put in for these areas with the thought of hunting both archery and rifle on the single tag, but just a heads up if you did. Have a great week folks.
