Not global warming, it’s “climate change”

My daughter drew a Colorado 1st rifle bull tag in the secondary draw. This was her first elk hunt, though she spent a week hunting Mulies in the same unit last year, unfortunately on that hunt we just couldn’t turn up a mature buck. This year her elk hunt would take place over her 16th...

Congrats! Sounds like a great hunt

A sad state of affairs to be sure. But these bastards had a chance and a choice on their own lives and bodies, they blew it. #getarope or at least some rock salt loaded 12 gauges

There’s no shortage of people willing and able to pay; I’ll pay the higher price too. I might even benefit from this, I have a bucket list elk hunt booked in the Thorofare in 2025, with this scheme I won’t have to worry about drawing that tag. I can afford to keep hunting, but my means are...

Congratulations!

This really sums it up well, imo. Can Wyoming raise the price, increase revenue and increase the draw odds for well healed hunters? Absolutely. Should this be the direction public wildlife on public lands goes - to the highest bidder? Nope. I don’t think the move to $2k on a Wyoming elk...

$74k is enough to get peoples attention, though a public hanging would be a better way to get the point across…

Why can’t the pro-prey species side (as opposed to anti-wolf 😉) shop judges and sue to stop the wolf introduction? Surely the wolves will endanger some other endangered species and a decade or two worth of studies should be in order? Use the same tactics the wolf lovers use?

My daughter has a tag for the same unit in two weeks. I’m pretty familiar with the unit, plenty of public land with Antelope, many of the public parcels are only one section and walk in only. Should still be a great hunt.

After the initial excitement of drawing a tag there’s always a couple month lull, real excitement usually starts about a month out. 3-5 year planning and general excitement about next season never stops.

It seems like it shouldn’t be that difficult to set the secondary draw up to use preference points and a reasonable R/NR split. Keep 100% youth preference for doe/cow tags. not clearing points out of the system seems to be a major issue to me. But, I have two nonresident youth who are...

1st rifle bull tag for my daughter, she’ll be elk hunting the day she turns 16 (or hopefully packing one out!). 2nd rifle buck tag for my son in a good unit, I have 2nd rifle buck tag in the unit next door so I’ll have to kill a 190 on the first day then go scout for him 😉 . Both kids are...

Hoping to get tags for my two youths, there are some pretty good tags on the list.

Got my deer tag, headed back to the Gunnison basin in November.

I have my first and likely only ever guided hunt booked for the Thoroughfare in 2025. Only way a NR can ever hunt that country. Honestly, with the overt hatred towards non-residents I would not give two 💩’s if as much federal land as possible was sold off to highest bidder and wildlife was...

Points for me

Done

Rich - I found about 30 100 grain Sierra Game Kings on my bullet shelf, pm me if you want them
