Who put in for an Idaho big three tag?

[ida homer]

In for goats. I still don't have a hard on for trophy species, I prefer putting in for the other 3 species. Although the 1 goat hunt I went on was such an adventure.

But I figure I ought to start applying if I ever want to shoot the big 3.

Im expecting a mountain goat tag

 

[Joe Hulburt]

I already got my Idaho moose and couldn't settle on a sheep hunt to try for so I'll apply for deer and elk.

 

[Mica Man]

Goat for me which is the last of the big three for me to draw. Sheep for my son.

 

[Amstaff]

I put in for mtn goat. Why not! Wy pronghorn, too...

 

[Spitz]

Moose for me as well. Hopefully there is plenty of HuntTalk luck to go around this year.

 

[dirtytough]

Sheep for me this year. Good luck unless you draw "my tag" ha

First year in about 15 I did not do Mtn goat as I thought I would draw in Colo. did not want conflicting Mtn Goat hunts. I drew in Colo so it worked out. Now how about a good deer hunt in Idaho.

 

[ashersdad]

In for moose as well. I hope someone on here draws. Good luck all!

 

[Hawk Tuah]

Goat as a resident.

 

[RidgeRebel]

NR moose, although I heard on the RichOutdoors podcast I may regret my unit choice. I put in for Unit 51 a guest on that show said he lives near the unit and he would not want the tag. Oh well, I just want the chance to hunt so hopefully I draw.

 

[jquigley]

NR Moose. Fingers crossed.

 

[7Bartman]

Kicking myself as I missed the Idaho NR moose deadline. I'll be heading back for OTC elk anyway.

 

[Big Fin]

Attempt #15 for NR moose. Given our crazy crammed calendar for this year, I suspect this will be the year lightning strikes.

 

[Carnage2011]

When is the drawing for idaho big3?

 

[kimbersig]

years past it would be this week(last year it was the 17th). But its a new contractor this year that had problems with the bear and turkey draws so I'm not holding my breath for this week.

 

[IK-NWhunter]

Moose tag for me. 1 in 12 shot for nonresidents in the unit last year. I'm really hoping to draw! Results should be out in a few days I imagine.

 

[BAKPAKR]

RM Bighorn for me.

 

[TheTone]

Moose for me

Moose tag for me. 1 in 12 shot for nonresidents in the unit last year. I'm really hoping to draw! Results should be out in a few days I imagine.

There are no NR tags guaranteed in any specific Big 3 unit. The 1 in 12 odds for that particular unit in 2017 could have easily been 0 in 12 if the applications were drawn in a slightly different order in 2017. Avoiding units that show heavy application pressure year after year is likely to improve a NR applicant's odds but the 10% cap double hurdle still makes the NR odds way worse than 1 in 12 for any moose unit in 2018. Idaho has a two-hurdle process to be awarded a tag as a NR. The NR application first has to be selected out of the combined pool of R and NR applications. When the NR application is selected then a NR tag is only awarded when the 10% cap for the species is not yet met plus the 10% NR cap per unit is not yet exceeded.
