That’s good to hear!

That's good! But with all the talk still think we will see a ton of creep from guys dumping points out of fear of the future.

No I think this year will chill out, most don’t apply till the last few days, this should curve the point creep imo

Bummer...

Good deal. Now what’s next? Seems that lots changed, and/or was proposed to change, this year, and this was to be the crescendo

So Randy's fears were not realized about the special draw prices? Good news.

I have a feeling this one isn’t over quite yet.

This is hysterical, obviously the legislature has more important things to work on.

I don't think this is over yet. @JM77 Had pointed out in a different thread that this bill was not introduced bc financial bills have to go through the house. So this bill is just moving to the house.

Right! This is just a timeout the game's far from over.

There is enough time between now and the deer and antelope draws for this to get picked back up in the House and have major implications for point creep for those species. I expect it to still be pretty significant across the board, though a slow economy may blunt it some.

Even if passed this session, increases won't go into effect until 2024.
