2016 Wyoming Draw
My dad and I Applied for and drew our first ever antelope tags. Drew our second choice, 113-2 and got the preference point, exactly what we were hoping for with zero points going into the draw. Could not be more excited! �� -

Thank you for posting. I live in Bend, OR, only 20 minutes south of Redmond and had no idea that group discussed in the Washington Post article existed. It's crazy to read about something like that so close to home.- idi1796

More Presidential discussion on public lands
Thankfully, when I cast my vote for the Democratic candidate in November I can sleep soundly knowing that they will not sell our public lands right from under my feet. What I do worry/wonder about are those who traditionally vote republican, but are fierce supporters of our public land. Everyone...- idi1796

Great read
I came across this article this morning and haven't seen it posted so thought I would share. This is what I have been saying for a while now. I know the outdoor industry does a lot and contributes a lot behind the scenes but I would love to see them get out in front of the issue. Enjoy...- idi1796

Channeling my inner Big Fin
I completely agree with what you said and completely understand it. My only concern is that the every day person, who are to busy in their every day lives to even sit down and relax for a moment, will completely miss those positions. Those are the people, the masses that we need in this fight to...- idi1796

Channeling my inner Big Fin
Are you saying that they money outdoor companies pump towards democratic candidates is their way of voicing their position? If so, much like the NRAs reluctance to come out and clearly state their opinion, no matter what that is, is weak in my opinion. I am well aware of the work democrats...- idi1796

Channeling my inner Big Fin
If they are not silent then they have done a poor job of making it known what they stand for. I have no reason to believe they have not invested tons of time and money, but for someone like myself who pays attention, I have not heard a peep.- idi1796

Channeling my inner Big Fin
As part of the education process, I have wondered where many of the big outdoor companies stand on this issue. Much like the NRA, I find their silence a little concerning. As many have already stated, this fight goes far beyond hunters/fisherman. All people who enjoy the vast amounts of public...- idi1796

Cruz on Public Lands
Could not agree more. This country is moving in one direction on certain social issues and that direction will never pull a U turn and head back in the way some conservatives would like. Stop spending time on something that will never happen and start focusing on things that are on our doorstep...- idi1796

Party Applications
Super simple question(I have a guess) that I have not been able to find a concrete answer to in the Wyoming regs. Do all members in a party application receive a preference point if we don't draw our first choice like you would if you applied as an individual? My research skills are apparently...- idi1796

Starting out- advice welcome
This year I turned 30 and am in the same boat as you. I am now in a position where I could start building out of state points if I wanted to. But with all of the different research I have done I believe I am coming to the conclusion that it is not worth it, at least for me. Living in Oregon I...- idi1796

Federal Government right to own land
That is a wonderful, easy to follow/understand way of explaining this very tough/complicated (only complicated from all the BS put out there from those who want to "transfer" our public lands) issue. For people who are new to the topic or have never heard about it, I think the words above are a...- idi1796
