    Do you know if they follow normal rounding rules for the 84:16 tag distribution?

    Elk Draw Questions

    1.) I understand that the landowner tags come off the available quota before the draw process. Does the WG&F post the actual number of non-res landowner tags actually issued each year for each unit and license type? I don't know if they publish a list, but I emailed them last year and they...

    2024 NR elk applications - special vs regular

    I went special and any bull close to the road better watch out!

    Thoughts on new Special license fees

    I bet odds for special antlerless elk just got way better.

    NR special draw license went WAY up...

    You're looking at this all wrong. NR Special Elk is about $2000 of free meat!

    Poor Landowners

    I believe portage is a natural right and should apply in every state. Of course laws about navigation and flowing waterways are also about as clear as mud in most states. :)

    Texas public land monster WT

    I believe you need a badge from the Department of Defense to hunt there. They list the requirements on their website. In the past I hunted a closed base in East Texas with a contractor. His badge allowed me to hunt as his guest.

    Thoughts?

    I could probably own a helicopter if I didn't fish and hunt! :) Regarding public land, I think an aircraft can only land on a designated runway. It's similar to how most public land requires vehicles to stay on established roads/trails.

    POINT SHARING,..........HELP,,,,,,,,,THANK YOU.

    Do we really know how much a point weighs? I do know 144 points would be a gross. :)

    Is there permits for Audad on public property, or is it all private hunting.

    Have you looked at New Mexico? You need to read up on the TPWD system to see how it works for the future. There also might be cheaper private land hunts in the Hill Country, but that could be more feeder hunting than spot and stalk.

    Tell me about the Lubbock area

    Did you do something bad in a past life? Just kidding! Lubbock wouldn't be a bad place to live. It's hot and dry or come to East Texas for hot and wet. The hunting is pretty good but it's going to be on private land. Of course New Mexico isn't very far for small game on public land. You will...

    any one wanna talk NR pronghorn with me?

    When you apply in Wyoming, I believe they run the preference point draw first and then the random draw. This is only for your first choice. That means if you didn't have enough points to draw in the PP draw, you have another chance for the tags allocated to the random pool. You cannot pick to...

    any one wanna talk NR pronghorn with me?

    I will say the hardest part of killing a pronghorn on public land is drawing the tag. With 3 points, you're most likely going to have to hope for a random tag in the units that have a decent amount of public land. Paying the Special fee might help your odds a little bit.

    NMDGF Bear and Mt Lion/Cougar comment period

    Thanks, I had commented earlier. I'll try to comment again. I don't understand how folks don't understand that we need to be involved in commenting about proposed regulations in all the states.

    Colorado Return Tag Email

    I thought they only contacted the next applicant in line for the tags that took a certain number of points to draw. This hunt went to the second draw.

    Colorado Return Tag Email

    I replied to the email and it's legit. They replied with: Hi Jason - Unfortunately our system does not take into account which other licenses you currently hold or your choice order when the data is pulled that you applied for that hunt code, just that you were next in the draw order/reissue...

    Email Scam

    I think this is a scam. I didn't apply for this tag first choice and it's also a tag that would go directly for sale and not to the next person in the draw order.

    Colorado Return Tag Email

    Has anyone got an email from Colorado about a returned tag from <[email protected]> It looks like a scam. I added a picture of the email. They claim I applied for a tag as a first choice when I actually applied for it as my third choice. I also drew my second choice so I couldn't buy...

    Let’s keep the E Plus program

    From what I've read, it seems like the organizations against EPLUS are claiming all those landowner tags will go back into the public draw if EPLUS is eliminated. I don't believe that is true. I don't have much of an opinion on the issue because I don't purchase landowner tags and only hunt elk...

    Let’s keep the E Plus program

    If EPLUS was eliminated, I wonder if it would increase the number of tags available in the draw. I also don't believe NRs are the ones complaining about EPLUS. It seems like NRs benefit from EPLUS way more than NM residents.

    Is OnX looking at way points, stealing spots?

    Hope they enjoy the show when I go to the toilet! :ROFLMAO:

    OTC Bear Question

    muzzleloader optics

    I use a Skinner receiver sight on mine. I prefer receiver mounted apertures when I'm shooting iron sights. Williams aren't too expensive.

    Secondary draw list is up.

    My brother and I drew in the secondary draw in 2021. We were the only 2 that applied for the tags. We've drawn our 2-4th choices in the primary draw too.

    Wyoming draw?

    Does anyone remember if they posted the draw results 2 days early last year? I know NR elk has been posted 2 days ahead of schedule for the last two years.

    CC hits this week?

    June 3. These were the dates I got the emails about the draw results. Seems like the credit card charges come earlier than the draw email.

    Wyoming NR Elk Draw

    The special fee didn't buy much better odds for general tags.
