    Paunsagaunt issue

    I’ve spent the last couple of days on the winter range around Kanab. It has concerned me for years how many mature 2xwatevers I see that are rutting hard. Each year it gets worse and worse in my mind. The management tag holders all want a 3x4 and won’t shoot them and certainly the regular tag...
