Does anyone know what the Oquirrh/Stansbury any weapon elk tag sold for at the RMEF banquet in Tooele back in early April? I'm doing a little research and was wondering how high that tag went.
Thanks,
Jon
Stackem,
As Whiskeydog said above, 16 points is getting you very close to some great tags. You've waited a long time so you want to be sure to get the right hunt. I am the operator of the website www.HuntersTrailhead.com that details the real statistical odds of drawing every tag in the state...
A party application will hurt you if there is only 1 tag remaining when your group application is drawn. If that occurs, they will skip over you and go to the next single applicant - even if it that applicant is in a lower point pool. I have seen instances where a group applied for a hunt that...
For the past 3 years, the application reports have been printed the first week to 10 days of August. Then they have to be approved before they are posted on line. I usually expect to see them by the middle to the end of August. I wish that they would post them sooner.
Good luck,
Jon...
Is he a resident or non-resident? If he is a non-resident, he can hunt all 4 of the Wasatch units. I have some good advice for 2 of the other units, but I am a bit limited on Lone Peak its self.

c86,
I live in Tooele and spend a good amount of time on this unit. I would use some caution before applying for an Oquirrh-Stansbury elk tag. You are correct in that most of the Stansbury range is public, but there are very few elk over there. I wouldn't even waist your time hunting that side...
Zim,
I am glad that the Favorites system is now working for you. I did check the system regarding the low success rate in 2009 for unit 38. You are correct. The calculation was messed up but has now been corrected. Thanks for the heads up.

Zim,
Could you please tell me what is not working with your favorites? I checked your profile and you do have several Wyoming hunts saved in there. Hopefully you figured it out, but please let me know if you are still having problems.
Thanks,

Horniac is exactly right. You need to "drill" all the way down to the specific unit detail page. However, not all states have the maps up yet. Arizona, Utah and Wyoming are there now, Colorado and New Mexico are coming in the next few weeks and the remaining states will be brought up ASAP...
Bill,
Choose a species, select your residency and click the "Find a Hunt" button. Your point level will be highlighted on the next screen that comes up. The point box remains available for those that choose not to use the point portfolio system but your points will not automatically appear in...
LAST EDITED ON Jan-04-13 AT 03:56PM (MST)[p]The gentleman in the lower picture was a hunter in our camp this year. I was the one that actually rediscovered the rack during the limited entry rifle hunt. When we packed this gentleman out to his truck after his hunt we called the DWR and reported...
This would be very cool! What do you guys think? I have hunted Wyoming and Montana and have never run into a grizzly though I am pretty sure they were in the area.

Well since Sliver mentioned it, I guess that I should post up a pic of the bulls we got in the Roadless area this year. The first one was on opening morning. A single shot across the canyon and this guy didn't go anywhere but down. It green scored 362 2/8.
We got this bull a few days later...
Taxi,
Very few elk on the Stansburys. Occasionally you will find a small herd but not very often. If you have drawn a tag, I wouldn't waste your time over there. I live in Tooele and spend a good amount of time on the Stansburys and I have not seen an elk for a couple years. They are there, but...
Joshua,
First off congratulations to your buddy. He is in for an incredible hunt. The roadless area is a very special place and when it comes to elk, there is no where else I would rather hunt. This is Jon with Double C and I really appreciate all of the positive recommendations we have...
BBB,
The draw odds presented here on MM take into account all 1st choice applicants (successful or not) and all successful applicants regardless of choice. Your understanding of the Nevada system is correct in that all 5 of your choices will be considered before moving on to another applicant...
It has taken a bit longer than I had hoped, but the 2011 Nevada drawing odds database has been updated. Check them out here:

BBB,
You have hit on a problem I have wanted to correct in the odds system for a while. Your question gave me the incentive to try and fix it. The Beaver nanny hunt is now available in the odds system. Obviously it does not show any odds for 2011, but when you click into the history for that...
OK,
I think I have fixed the problem. The historical odds data for New Mexico is back on line and should be good to go.

I apologize for the error and thank you for your patience.
Good luck to all that apply.

Gentlemen,
I must confess that you are correct. The historical numbers are messed up. At this point, I am not sure what happened and I will be going back through each year to correct the problem. Great care is taken to insure accuracy, but until today I didn't think that there was a need to...
Gents,
I see that Jim beat me to the punch, but 2011 New Mexico drawing odds are now available. Check them out here.

longshooter,
Both of those hunts are in there. For some reason, archery is not showing up in the drop downs. I will get that fixed. However, if you leave the weapon choice blank and you will be able to find the odds for both of those hunts.
Thanks for the heads up. I will get that fixed.
Jon...

I just recently acquired the 2011 Arizona deer and sheep application reports. I know that a lot of you are anxious to see the latest odds - me too. I will get the odds calculated and posted as quickly as I can.
Thanks for everyone's patience.

PCPython,
Thanks for the PM. First off, I would ask you to be certain that you had 9 points going into this years drawing. If you have 9 now, you would have only had 8 going in and you need to look at the 8 point level odds. That will explain why you did not draw as the odds at that level were...
Sorry for the delay guys. I have been out doing a bit of scouting for myself here in Utah this past weekend. Only 10 more days!!!!!!
PCPython,
What hunt did you apply for? Send me a PM if you would prefer not revealing that information publicly. If the odds charts say that the odds at your...
