And when they go to 90/10, they will double it again. We are well on the way to the aristocratic hunting model in Europe, only the wealthy will be able to afford to hunt. I feel bad for the next generation.
51 people including me applied for 3 tags last year, around 6% chance of drawing. I’m 64, and evidently not very lucky, hence wanting to go in a different direction.
Double checked, the email is correct, and the portal says my applications are pending. Only concerned because it would be a bummer to find out something was wrong and I didn't get entered inthe draw, even though I won't draw anyway! ;-)
Been doing the special deer price for years, odds aren't getting any better, hence wanting to go somewhere else. Spending the extra money just to keep my points is getting old.
Because the Wyoming legistature doesn't care about about us nonresidents at all, except that they know without us, WGFD and whatever else they use all of the preference point and higher nonresident fee money would disappear and the residents would be paying way higher tag fees to receive the...
I bought into the hype last June, sent in for the 5 state program $995. Learned more about the program as I discussed things with them. It was a mistake on my part, shame on me for not realizing that if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. I currently have 26 sheep points and was told...
I am not sure how realistic it is, but something in the 180 class would be the goal, and I know those aren't hiding behind every piece of sagebrush or in every dark timber patch. I think the only rut hunt for mule deer is the 128 November tag, which has odds of around 5% of drawing. I'm going to...
After trying to draw the unit 128 November deer hunt in Wyoming for 20 years, I have noticed the odds are not improving much, as tags got reduced to the point of me looking for a different area to use my 20 points. As a nonresident, I am limited to non-wilderness areas. Saw a previous post from...
I did the same, probably not to the extent of knowing the staffers though😂 How can we see that they both voted to strip it out of the BBB? I will be sending thank you notes to them when I see something official.
Good luck asking questions on HT, I have found most people on here are sarcastic assholes who either live in Wyoming, or have private property they hunt and don't have to look for public land that isn't overrun with other hunters or outfitters. Personally, id save my points and hunt the west...
We didn't end up applying for 113, had a WGFD tell me that an outfitter who has private access to the State land, drives all of the roads, making it difficult on the people who have to hoof it.
