No, what I am saying is that number 1. The idea that ranchers that own grazing permitts are going to get tags is pretty laughable. I was born and raised on a ranch that has a public lands allotment close to 100,000 acres. Are you telling me that someday in the near future that I will be able to get compensation tags for all the deer that reside on that 100,000 acres of public land??? Please! The whole idea, article, proposal, and post you are refering too are laughable and a wast of time.
Number 2. The whole idea that Utah has it right and NV is not managing their wildlife properly and we could have more tags and bigger animals if this, that, and the other thing..... is almost just as laughable. The lone reason Utah is killing such big bulls right now is because they don't kill any!! They give minimal tags in trophy areas resulting in large bull to cow ratios and bulls that get a chance to grow and grow.
So, if you want big 400 class bulls running everywhere, what do you have to do, not kill as many and let them grow. How do you do that, you reduce the number of tags. So then, how does your kid and family beneift when now they have to wait until they are 45 to draw a tag because there are so few given every year?
Listen, I am as big a trophy hunter as the next guy. I killed a 340 class NV bull last year that I am thrilled with. I have two NV bighorn sheep, both make book and one won me a belt buckle. My point with the violin and hip-boots is that everyone wants to wine about how hunting in NV could be so much better. Is it really that bad? Take a look around at all the wild fires and urban sprawl and be thankful its still as good as it is. Then take another second to consider how much ranchers do for wildlife in this state. All the cattle water developments that benefit wildlife, all the cultivated fields that are deer and antelope havens.
I don't know you or anything about you, might be the nicest guy around and the kinda guy I would like to have a beer with, but your origional post was pretty ignorant.
