NR's fund 77% of license revenue, not the over-all budget. How many volunteer hours (at a calculated value of $29/hour) do NR's provide to wildlife, habitat, etc? How many commission meetings, task force meetings, land use meetings, GF meetings, Legislative interim meetings, etc. do NR's...

No it's not...2700 comments largely opposed had an impact on the task force. I also have some insider information that appears to be favoring the good guys. Sending comments was your best move, thank you for doing so.

You need to get your "facts" straight as you don't know chit from low grade peanut butter about what happened, who the players were, etc. The initial bill introduced for 90-10 was only about moose, sheep, goat, and bison. That bill was sponsored by Larry Hicks at the recommendation of some...

IME, which is pretty limited, moose are not all that difficult to kill. My Dad has shot 3 shiras, all with a 300 winchester and 180 partitions, all one shot each at moderate range (120ish yards). My Brother has killed on Shiras, also with a 300 and 180 partitions, one shot. I've shot 2 shiras...

Nobody is forcing anyone to participate or buy points.

IMO, its going to be doubtful you will know much about the moose point situation before the deadline. That issue is going to be contentious with Residents.

Its been a tough couple years for wildlife too, in particular deer and pronghorn. Its too bad people don't draw tags, but the health of the herds has to come first. I also don't see it getting much better anytime soon, unfortunately. Not seeing high doe/fawn ratio's with pronghorn in large...

Pretty sure they did die for our right to protest...destroy property, absolutely no. Important enough, its not listed as the second amendment, but rather the FIRST: I do agree that people need to wake up, like perhaps remedial civics as a good first step. First Amendment: Congress shall make...

Just another ho-hum Wyoming draw for me. A couple doe pronghorn to throw away, 2 cow tags plus general elk, additional buck whitetail and general deer, and a good pronghorn tag. Between those and my moose permit, should keep me plenty busy. Wife drew a good pronghorn tag too.

I agree to a point. But, I learned many of the spots I hunt myself, and that is very rewarding. Its 99% of the fun and what makes hunting special on a personal level. It took a lot of time for me, a level of commitment that I think others should have to go through rather than me showing them...

Haven't fished since the ice left, too busy at work. But did take advantage of the couple federal holidays during ice fishing season. Decent Snake River Cutthroat: Rainbow with some shoulders: This and that: To the smoker:

Have plenty to keep me busy. Between now and August figure out my new promotion/position at work and get going on that. Off to a good start there, and stacking up leave for the fall. Hopefully have some success lobbying in D.C. on some work related issues. Have our annual AK fishing trip in...

Fishing doesn't suck...

When I first moved to Wyoming in 2000, I could pick up a pronghorn buck tag and 2 doe tags the day I decided to hunt in a very good area that is now taking NR's 3-4 points to draw.

So, around 8400 total guided hunts a year in Wyoming. 3014 elk hunts, 2600ish pronghorn and 2553 deer. Going 90/10 would result in about the same number of tags going to their clients with the exception of pronghorn and possibly deer, which would see significant increases. How they divide the...

Its pretty amazing how poorly people understand the draw processes and what all the options and tags that are available. You see it all the time on boards like this, people asking things like, "Want to hunt bull elk in Wyoming how do I get a tag OTC"...stuff like that.
