Same. I hope the trend of less applicants continues.

That is a very interesting chart, wonder if that trend will hold.

Applications dropped like 32%, tags dropped 21%. I hope tags level off and applications continue to drop.

was the exact same thing last year and it showed up a week early too

As others mentioned, last year they said 16th, for some reason they added a week this year

Obviously not?

Maybe they shouldn't keep trying to price their cash cow (NRs) out of the game. They're trying, and it's working.

Higher prices would be about the only way to get apps to drop.

Look at the WY elk population over the past 5 years.

Then look at the tags available to the NR hunter. Just steadily dropping.
