NM applications
Good to hear. Tag numbers have been too high in those places if they really want them to be trophy quality units. Don’t know much about the oryx, but I would hope they are basing objectives off of whatever their biologists think is best- huntandfly

You say this jokingly, but a couple years ago I went 3/4 green on elk, deer and oryx. It was a serious problem, my boss wasn’t stoked- huntandfly

To add additional context, the general tag has been creeping at an average of 0.5 points per year. Meaning it should take 6 points to guarantee the tag this year, with about 40-60% odds at 5.5 points- huntandfly

This is not true. 5.5 points guaranteed the tag in the regular last year- huntandfly

I can’t complain, I have hunted a number of good tags the past 5 years. It’s all about planning, patience, and a little sprinkle of luck. Hope you get lucky in the draw.- huntandfly

Oh I play the game. I’m one of the idiots who got on the train right as Randy started getting popular. I’m in point purgatory in at least 7 states- huntandfly

Not my first time applying, but if my party doesn’t draw the W general with an average of 6.75 I may actually quit- huntandfly

Arizona 2nd choice
If point creep ends up putting you below 100% odds for the tag you “should” be able to draw, then you will want to have that crazy moonshot choice in your first choice slot for the second pass. Basically, it doesn’t hurt you at all to put a dream tag in choice 1 and the tag you “should” draw in...- huntandfly

My First Muley, 2 Firsts in One
Not necessarily true. A cactus buck is “any buck with over 50% of its antlers covered in velvet during season” which is well after the normal velvet shedding timeframe. It usually indicates some sort of testosterone production issue with the deer. If this buck was killed in October then it fits...- huntandfly
