    MT ELK B 410-02

    Nicely done. Always appreciate when people follow up after the hunt. How was it? I've heard the elk can sometimes flee to private and be hard to access in this area.

    How many still tip waiters and waitresses at 20% or more?

    I don't really understand why tips are based on a percent basis. Why do I tip significantly more for an expensive bottle of wine than for a bottle of beer? Why do I tip more for my steak than my wife's salad? If I go to a more expensive restaurant, and the waiter has a lot of tables, and I...

    What drones are to hunting….

    I think the biggest difference is that people don't see the scarcity with fish the way they do with big game. The feeling is everyone catching more fish doesn't hurt anyone, but everyone killing more elk leaves fewer elk for everyone else.

    Wyoming Pref Point Purchase Time Allowed

    I have lived in 4 western states in the last 8 years, so I'd like to think I'm not just all talk haha No I don't think it's too bad and that's why I still buy tags. But I also don't want tags to be so expensive that most think it isn't worth it... I've been blessed and would still buy tags at a...

    Wyoming Pref Point Purchase Time Allowed

    So the idea is to get them to stop spending money on points? Or to try to extract more money from people that aren't actually taking anything form the resource?

    Wyoming Pref Point Purchase Time Allowed

    My plan for these really hard to draw nonresident tags is to just move to the state at some point and get residency... Why? You think prices should be so high that it is a deterrent? Non-resident hunting in Wyoming is not cheap...

    Boat ramp situation today

    Drivers are generally not responsible (legally speaking) for rocks thrown up from their tire. If the rock were to come off of their trailer or out of the bed or something, then they can. This will just will make it less painful when you're driving in the woods this fall and get some branches...

    GG vetos Sheep and Moose Lottery Option

    I don't really follow this issue. How would this proposed raffle differ from the super tag? Seems like the higher price would just result in fewer raffle tickets sold. Also seems like doing more of these raffles would be extremely susceptible to product cannibalization, therefore reducing the...

    GG vetos Sheep and Moose Lottery Option

    Was talking to a guy the other day that said that nonresident archery hunters in the state I grew up in was the reason for low deer numbers. Showed him that nonresident archery was only 2% of doe harvest and 4% of buck harvest. He still couldn't be convinced lol. I agree with you on the pricing...

    GG vetos Sheep and Moose Lottery Option

    I actually do kind of wonder if all tags went to an auction, what would the price get down to? like a white tail deer in Iowa. How would it compare to current tag prices? Would it actually be more than that $630 a non resident has to currently spend?

    Wyoming Pref Point Purchase Time Allowed

    I have points for tags that I could've drawn a few years ago (not 15 javis but still...). I will use most all of them at some point (I'm in my 20s so have time lol), but have had a few years of limited availability due to college, a new job, a wedding, honey moon, drawing other tags etc... I...
