Starting 2021 archery antelope hunters will have to choose their archery unit and apply for the hunt first choice i.e. no more putting in for a rifle hunt 1st choice then drawing archery as an automatic backup. How will this affect the any weapon odds? Anybody done any math and want to guess? Are you okay with this?
From IDFG:
In a major statewide change for pronghorn hunters, the Commission approved changing unlimited archery controlled hunts for pronghorn into first-choice only hunts. Wildlife managers proposed the change in response to steadily increasing numbers of archery pronghorn hunters over the past 10 years and an effort to reduce hunter numbers in these controlled hunts. Going hand-in-hand with that change, the Commission also approved the reorganization of pronghorn units into 10 hunt areas for first-choice only controlled archery hunts.
