Maybe they're trying to avoid guys drawing 1 and done and not getting back in the system?? $$$$ ??
Part of me thinks, KISS, keep it simple stupid.
What's next, non-res get 5 points since they pay 10x more?
It really only matters for non-res tags let's be honest.
Worse odds sucks for everyone, but charging $3k in 5 plus states simply to apply is a lot.
Really is a debate for hunting becoming Rich vs Avg Joe. Bad odds vs Terrible.
I was gonna post/ask this...
not saying I'm going to get all of the NA29... but one could pretty easily have 29 mounts etc...
with 0-2 kids.... maybe they'd want some of them? not to mention, inheriting many of my father's mounts....
I'm picturing a basement/barn full of mounts one day.... lol.
Really wanting a 7prc myself!
Love that some of these newer rifles have barrels shorter than 26"!
I've see a few offering 22" as well as 24" and 20"
I personally don't planned to run a suppressor... so I'm leaning towards 22"
Let us know what you get and how you like it.
It's been 1 thing after another with this body...
toe/goat last winter/spring, which really had me unable to walk/run train in that way,
Now I've been limping around a couple months with heel pain, turns out it's a bone spur but hopefully can be treated with pills, fingers crossed.
Been...
I'm wondering if there are no random non-res tags issued for moose and sheep this year... if a ton of non-res will stop applying for those species, especially say if they have 10 or less points....??
and heck, looking at the points tables... it looks like a non-res should have about 23-24pts to...
I'll get points in AZ, CO, UT, NV, WY, MT,
I may apply for some tags in NM,
This year is mostly going to be points, next year should be applying for everything.
Didn't get my mountain goat. Passed on a ok billy day 2. Made 2 trips from out of state to MT. Was trying to time a weather window on the 2nd trip, but snow just kept building up and just couldn't really get to them on foot.
I had planned to be done Goat hunting if successful, now I'm a bit...
Congrats!
Did you pack it out yourself? any idea on the weight or how many loads/trips you made?
What cartridge were you shooting?
I passed up a billy, I'm starting to question if I should have... long season in MT though, hoping to get back there and get'er done!
Tough hunting!
Not sure if it's spot hog, or who makes a 2 pin adjustable archery sight?
or if anyone has a recommendation, I seem to recall someone you set your 20 and 50yd pin and they provide an adjustment sticker out to 100yds etc...
Thanks!
A little help needed.... if anyone knows of the following....and ideally someone they'd actually recommend using even better.
Hopefully going to need a place to take the Mtn.Goat after being successful,
Plan is to freeze the skull and hide and travel home to my taxidermist with it, but he told...
Is this in the UP?
Been gaining points for a long while now, not sure when I'll try to draw, or if I should, bow, gun, or diy/guide/dogs?
good luck, keep us posted.
I'm pretty surprised at this point that sheep, goat and moose aren't a once in a lifetime tag in all western states.
Particularly if it's a successful hunt.
PS- what about wilderness areas already....those are 100% outfitter draws already in a sense!? does that mean 50% could now not require an outfitter in wilderness areas?
