Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but I believe 322 has no crown, 332 and 324 has a little bit and 330 is mostly crown. I haven't spent much time in that area so I would be no help to hunting info

You are correct. I was in 332 in September and it was real wet.

okay how fasr west are you tallking because the supplemental tags are only good for 322 324 330 332 336-339 . and a few others. id just orefer crown over owned or even grazing leased land. saves time and such

Mostly private land with some grazing lease in 322, also 324. One other thing to note, in all the zones you mentioned you can only use the first supplemental tag. You need to go way north for the second one to be useable.

324 and 330 are good zones but every wanna be and road warrior has hit those zones so bad if you do see something it's on a full out run. 322 is great deer numbers hard to get permission same with 332

330 was buck central last time i was there. the shame is that they were all on the roads and didn't present a shot

I don't know it 330 is "buck central" I was in there last weekend and all I seen was fork horns and 3x3's and one small 4x4. Nothing would break 100". But I guess dumb ones don't get big.

I'm from 322, not much crown at all and deer numbers still very very low, please don't shoot any does here to promote the population to recover.

I used to hunt 324 326 and 429 every year. Get out of the truck and burn some calories. Get back 2-3 km and you'll see lots of game.

Swan Lake is crown land. Lots of whitetails in the area.

hey thanks for letting me know i think i might check out swan lake the next weekend. went all over 330 and 332 this weekend, saw one cranker on the highway around noon saturday, 2 does on the same highway around 11pm. both from the truck though, only seen one tiny doe out of range this evening around 3 while walking on foot..so overall pretty discouraged, swan is alot closer too, so im hopeful for that, NEED TO FILL THESE DAMN SUPPLEMENTALS!!
