Antelope you have a better shot at getting easy access for free. Moose on the other hand, I’m betting you’d have to work pretty hard to find someone who would let you hunt their ground, especially if you are wanting free access. There’s plenty of other options out there for both species that offer good hunts in units that have better public accessJust a general question, but for the anterless hunts where they are marked limited public access, are landowners open to giving you permission to hunt anterless species. How about for a trespass fee?
I am mostly asking about antelope or moose. Just trying to do some homework so I'm not that guy asking for help after the draw.
You really only have a shot at drawing your first choice, MAYBE, your 2nd, but that’s about it. And these days you’ll need Preference points, usually 2 minimum, to draw the majority of tags worth having. If you drew your 5th choice, it’s probably a unit that has terrible public access and is made up of mostly private property OR it’s a garbage hunt put in place to kill the 3 elk that live on the entire unit, just to keep the ranchers and farmers happy.I have not applied for a Utah antlerless tag before. How does the draw work with the 5 choices? Does it look at the first choice only or will all 5 of my choices be looked at in order and the first available hunt awarded? Basically, I am asking if I should put down 5 choices or will only the first one or two have a chance at being drawn?
It’s been that way since they implemented a points system for antlerless hunts back in 2006.... it’s nothing newI just got off the phone with Mr. Lisp voice and he/she told me that The Cow Moose and Bighorn Sheep are Bonus points Not Preference points
So the reason ya can't apply for Cow Moose and Bighorn Ewe tag is that you can Only apply for 1 Bonus point Species unless you are a Non-Ressy and they will take All the $$$ they can get from you wanna be's….
Really Beocth?
So I axed him/her???
Where does it show that Now we have Bonus and Preference points on Antlerless Species?
Plus, if it is the Very First Year for Bighorn Ewe tags, NO ONE has any Points on them.....Hello?
He/she Hung up on me saying that 'I don't like your attitude!! '
Our Tax $$$ paying State Govt goofball's for sure!

That can’t be true. There’s always been separate pools for non residents and residents. Even in the antlerless drawings. Look at the cow elk tag numbers. It clearly shows thatTalked to the folks and she said that the non residents and residents are lumped together for application of the available permits. So non residents can draw the available antlerless tags. I would assume this means that all 2 point holders, resident or non resident, are on equal footing for the available tags.
