Well, I'm probably going to regret this , but here goe's,GOD, I hate whiner's!!! Can't you do anything else except bash out of stater's, face up to it, you can't support your state without out of state money. If it was up to some of you resident tag's would be $2.50 each and unlimited so you could have the wood's to yourself and kill whatever YOU decided was appropiate! I own a motel also and have polled many out of state worker's as to why they where here instead of WYO,COLORADO, IDAHO etc, to a man they said the same thing " I CAN'T MAKE A LIVING WHERE I AM FROM " Do I resent them coming to our state to take a job away from a local ? absolutely not,go where the opportunity is, BUT, don't go back to your home state after siphoning off our high paying job's and complain about "non-resident's ". I remember going out to dinner with my wife in Pagosa Spring's CO. driving through a sea of orange to get to the resturant and then waiting for a table with about 30 hunter's also waiting, and because we had put on CIVILIAN clothes and didn't look like everyone else waiting we were givin a table quicker and told by the waitress ( whose pockets were full of tip's )that it was nice to wait on us rather than those out of state hunter jerk's, of course she did get a little red -faced when my wife told her we were waiting for our elk to get processed. Whiner's will contribute greatly to the demise of our sport , as someone else said , you complain about out of stater's and when they don't show up you'll then complain that fish and game is broke because we didn't come, it will alway's be someone else's fault that your state has a problem, never your's. Just remember, not everyone want's to ride fence or bust sod for little or no money so, don't be so resentful of folk's who have the money to build a house in (not your state) but , the state you happen to live in, they built on private property and most likely put local people to work, that's why we have state,federal land's and wilderness area's to hunt in, If you want to complain, complain about rancher's with nothing more than grazing right's that keep everyone off THEIR land, or lease it out to the highest bidder, and don't forget your guide's and outfitter's, look at all the outsider's they bring in, oh yes, let's not forget the rancher's whose land surround's public land but, won't allow tresspass to get to OUR/YOUR land, bottom line if it's legal and you don't like it , change the law or learn to live with it !! Most of you won't have to worry anyhow, within 10 yr's the wolve's will have eaten all the game.
Found any good sheds?? I think Wyo region g and h should cut wayyyy back on non -resident tags. And maybe even a small bit on the resident tags. If those areas where throphy managed you would see the next world record typical come from that area. Easily..
