Couldn't agree more... The thought that crossed my mind is that i know the UDWR is monitoring this site and others about all the drama and issues coming up. Wonder if they will black eye those of us so we wont draw a tag... can really see it happening but sure makes me wonder.

Good point with the membership status and data transactions.... Would love to have some REAL numbers to compare.

John Bair posted this.... It was about Sage Grouse for context. "It saddens me greatly to see sportsmen all fired up to fight each other, but then be totally unwilling to make a hard stand with those trying to win the big fights against the antis. If these groups win on the sage grouse issue...

With all the debate and concern of Data from RMEF... My question is (I hope) a simple one. How many Banquets has SFW held in it's lifetime? How many Banquets has RMEF held in it's lifetime? Any Data Breach's?

Ouch... Stupid question...Isn't fish in their Name?

read some of the other post under general hunting...

He tried... He wasn't available!

Since the audience for KUTV mostly 40 year old ladies. The reporter is trying to grab there attention to the corruption and none compliance of where the money goes and has gone. Since they are public tags there should be more accountability to the funds and who is using them! Hope that helps...

Word on the street is that there will be a News story on this issue this Thursday night at 10pm on KUTV. The reporter went in depth to interview RMEF, trying to meet with SFW, and also he met with the DWR. Good things.

Talked to RMEF for a good 20 minutes. They're not worried about the extended deadline. Say it's a very involved process and think it's likely DWR just wanted to attract more applicants before beginning the selection process. So.... while it looks like a shady move to block RMEF, it may not be.

With all do respect, I too am wondering where we are getting an sort of formal statement from MDF/SFW. I figured that something would be said. On that note, any word back from the DWR?

Hawkeye... I heard from a friend who works for one of the Utah Local News channels that they got wind of it and started making some phone calls to RMEF, SFW, MDF, and the UDWR... They are waiting for calls back but looks like pressure is on from the media about this as well. Thanks for...

SOOOO SICK and TIRED of the Kool-Aid that we as Utah sportsman are being fed. 3 members of the WB appointed by the Gov of utah on the board... Extending the time frame so that SFW can match or one up RMEF's bid... BGF taking 4 million dollars Utah tax paying dollars to fight sage grouse...

I love listening to Randy. He gives no non sense approach and he is not going to beat around the bush. His thoughts on drinking the Kool-Aid is Right on point. He is full of great info on how corrupt Utah is and how naive Utah sportsman are win regards to BGF and there agenda.

Just wondering where oh where are all the SFW bootmen proclaiming how wonderful SFW is and how much they have done and why SFW should be in charge of the Expo. Guess we know when the going gets tough the apparent tough get going due to the scam job that the state has been getting since'07!

Just got this via my email with a letter to the Feds, and a list of all the conservation orgs who are opposed to this... Interesting, very interesting! http://www.trcp.org/images/uploads/wygwam/Public_Land_Transfer_and_Sale_National_Sportsmen_Letter_4_14_2015.pdf

Word from the former SFW president is that SFW is buying a Outfitting business in BC for Stone Sheep! Glad to know that my previous years donations went to fund hunting outside of Utah. More "opportunity" for the wealthy to pull a tag. Just another thorn in my back side to irritate the heck...

LAST EDITED ON Mar-19-15 AT 10:00AM (MST)[p]SFW has done a few things good but in my opinion more things that are bad for our state and hunting heritage. Pheasants were pitched to the SFW elite (Troy, Ryan, and Don) around 2004 and 2005. The idea was told to a few of us asking, Pheasants were a...

Here's a question that I haven't heard much about that still concerns me, sorry that if I piss those off that don't want SFW to get involved with the mash lands. There needs to be more done with the "CANCER" of the marsh "FRAG". I know that there is a lot of money spent there as well. I know...
