hey guys im starting a new club. im thinking about calling it " the tent soup club" well anyway all that it takes to be a member is not drawing a license.. I have not drawn a tag to go hunting since 2000.. its been a long dry run. Im starting to think that the new mexico game and fish have a list and my name is on it. anyway if you qualify as a club member you can voice your complaints here. I will listen
 
Its because your in 2 every fall , your spoiled ! What ya need to do is start bird hunting . And stop trying for 2 , hey unit 7 can really be a good hunt lol.
 
I think I qualify:
Struck out on antelope,
struck out on elk,
drew 3rd choice for deer.
Hmmmm, wonder how many tags went to those who applied or paid late during the "extended" application and payment periods.

Also sent you a PM.

I am spoiled in unit 2. I hunted it my whole life, and cant imagine not being able to. Im thinking about becoming a prarie dog hunter...
 
Top this, between wy wife and I we've been in 36 drawings in 6 states and haven't drawn one tag! granted I put in for better units but we have points everywhere, even max points lots of places . with only Wyoming deer and Arizona left I'm not holding my breath. needless to say I'm not buying any lottery tickets.
 
Well with a Valle Vidal 1st rifle hunt last year and NM 16A 1st rifle this year I don't think I qualify. However, it should give your club some comfort that good tags are possible even back to back.
 
Well I am a member of the club, and will be for some time I fear. Last year, after waiting 8 years I got drawn for an Az. archery elk (I only hunt archery). It is hard to be disciplined after not hunting elk for years, but our preseason sounting trips had our expectations high, it was a 350 or bust hunt. Well it just did not happen. Also last year I got a Colorado 142 Pinyon Canyon archery muledeer tag. My buddy and I decided to wait until the final late Dec. hunt. As some of you may know this hunt is primarily on a military training facility. Well the people that run the hunt seemed to think that once the gun hunt was over, which was the hunt just before ours, the real hunting was over, so they severly restricted our ability to hunt. Because of the military facility access was monitored and you could only get on the facility when they allowed it. Needless to say last year was not what I expected. Years back my buddy and I got draw 3 out of 4 years for the Jan. 2b N.M. archery deer hunt. That was great and we were in hogg heaven. It has been about 4 years and no luck. I have been putting in for Utah, Colorado, N.M. and Az. each year. Of course I am very selective on the hunts area I put in for(except for this year in Az, in an attempt to increase my chances I have put in for an unpopular unit), which I understand limits my ability to draw a tag, but man I had to wait 8 years for Az, and now with the way they have changed the nonres draw etc I fear I will never get another Az. tag. I can't seem to draw any other state tags. This year I have blanked out completely with only Az. left, and that is little to no chance. So sign me up, I think I will be a lifetime memeber!!
 
Oh the joys of trying to obtain a tag to hunt the West! In the last three years, I have drawn only 2 tags in 70+ applications. Last year I went 0 for 26. My wife has only drawn 1 resident deer tag in three years. I think she is something like 1 for 20+ during this time frame.

With Garth, Cabela's T.A.G.S., and several other application services it will only get harder to snag a coveted permit.

I'm thinking about becoming, for the most part, an antlerless hunter. Tags for cows, does, and ewes are very easy to get. At least I'd be hunting every year. Still, the thought of paying $1,600 for a ewe tag or $1,200 for a cow moose permit might cause me to re-think some of this.
 
i have only put into draws in wyo and only draw one in four years i thought that was bad but i guess i got it good here.
over the counter elk tag if i don't get my area 19. i like 19 because its 8 miles from the house to my favorite spot.
the draw is in a week so i don't know if i got two tags in a row or not. i hope so.
