I would keep your Washington residency and hunt the big deer there...whitetails, and blacktails. Also have them Roosevelt elk to hunt in the Olympic Mtns and Rocky Mountain Elk in the Cascades.... I would give up whitetail hunting in a heartbeat to be able to have elk to hunt any day of the season.

I would aim for in between but would take an A hit over a B hit. High lung shots in my experience will go down in sight....heart shots can make it a distance....either way it is a dead deer though
