Between my ability to forever hold a grudge and the big guy sitting next to me and everyone that he knows, these phu*king draw results better be out by the weekend or else!
Although lots of precip, snow level has been high since xmas. Poured rain in McCall the last couple days of December. The ski resorts have been getting rain and rain/snow mix at their bases. No lows below 32f and highs in the mid 40's on the 10 day forecast, for Boise. Curious about everyones'...
Might take a while this year. They're trying out a cutting edge new process, they're gonna double check the results before they release them! Last year they had the public proof it, to save on labor costs.
Haha, written with the rhetoric that dudes are actually passing on bulls. Legal bulls, illegal bulls, goofy bulls, cows, brown they're down in that zone. Lol. I hope you fill your tag, I don't think you will have trouble doing so.
Good work on reporting back, glad you guys had a fun hunt. Bummer about the tough age class. Praying for a mild winter this year and next, if so I feel we will be in good shape for fall 23’.
Blue chip tag syndrome is real and is easy to get caught up in. I drew 32 late rifle in 20’, although...
If you think applicant numbers will be down, you're delusional. 20%+ YOY applicant increases in multiple states, for the past couple years in a row now. Sucks. I do agree with some above. If I was a NR, I would likely skip ID. The value is diminishing quickly.
I think the regs still say by...
Slow slow slow. Mud, rain, stale birds, high 40's, etc. Got out for ducks, but haven't even wanted to ask permission for geese. Too muddy to walk out into someones' field.
+1
Gutting and then spreading the legs open with a stick "to get some airflow" does not work. Tried it once with a bull in -5F temps with 10 mph of wind. Only the exposed meat was cold, but the backstraps and interior portions were room temp in the morning, even in those downright frigid late...
The forums aren't like they used to be. I joined hunt talk in 2013 and here in 2011, I think. Even just 9 years ago, threads would maybe get 50 views. There were maybe 15 regulars on the boards, so it was more tight knit. A boring thread on HT will get a thousand views these days. Guys just...
The $704 version took 3 points this year. That's not general in my book, that's limited entry.
Rockies in OR is an option. I'll pass on the rosies in the wet 10' tall brush though.
Goes to show the value of our OTC tag. I'd pay $500 for it as a resident, if I had to.
You mean raise them to competitive prices in line with every other state?
MT? Over a grand. WY? $1300+ And those aren't even OTC. Your 2 options for true OTC are us and CO. You're more than welcome to go battle the orange army on the front range. Our general tag = 2-4 point draw units in some...
I'm in the 5 day penalty box. My Sawtooth days are likely over, as I won't sacrifice an elk app. A buddy snagged an "A" tag.
Any feel for the demand this year? I logged in at 1:30 pm on my wife's account, and both A & B were gone.
I wonder if this new rule took it from a 3 minute sell out to a...
Wish I had some helpful information for yah, having only bow hunted twice for antelope in ID. Just from word of mouth, it doesn't sound like there's a giant difference unit to unit genetic wise (WY is different). I would do my best to scout and tag one opening morning, I think some of those open...
