I have been drawing tags (trying to) all over the west for 15+ years now. I have been lucky to draw a few good Elk and deer tags. Never a Sheep, Moose or Goat tag that I apply for.
I have been pretty much pounding every species in every states. As you know this comes at a cost. Most states like AZ charges you for a hunting license to get a preference point.
Well, bottom line is this total cost for all states is more than $1200 each year just to have the opportunity to get in this pool of tags and the draw odds are terrible. I see it getting worse and more expensive every year.
I can take this same money and go on a moose hunt in Canada in a couple of years.
I am a normal working man and this has reached a point that I am not sure I can continue to do this.
Anyone else in this situation? Any sussestion?
