My fall calendar is just sitting there, waiting... I need to know what tags the kids drew!
Please, I can only get so arousedI think it might be updating.
Unfortunately Dems are f cking woke lunatics in every other facet of life. I get the importance of hunting and the right legislatures and laws implemented, but don't miss the forest for the trees....Here in Idaho, it was republican legislators who wanted to sell public land, republican legislators who screwed up the trespass laws for the benefit of the Wilks Brothers, etc, etc, etc. Simply electing republicans does not make good policy for hunters and anglers. We sportsmen need to do a better job of voting our issues and not blindly supporting people because of their affiliation.
I’m not so sure.I mean . . . its got to be this week . . . right?
Add Arizona to the list of states with far more difficult draws who can turn out draw results in a far shorter period of time than Idaho, I know they use an outside vendor for the draws now but still embarrassing that they even hired gooutdoorsI think I jumped the gun. When I logged in this morning it took a long time to update, but doesn't appear to have changed now.
Damn.
AZ and Idaho in one day would have been more disappointment than I am able to bear anyway.
I hear that, I still think we need to choose wisely and if a "conservative" has shown to not support our public lands access or gives away our rights to special interest groups we need to make sure they are not reelected and support a different candidate that does support preserving our rightsUnfortunately Dems are f cking woke lunatics in every other facet of life.

How would voting for the alternative been better for sportsman?Here in Idaho, it was republican legislators who wanted to sell public land, republican legislators who screwed up the trespass laws for the benefit of the Wilks Brothers, etc, etc, etc. Simply electing republicans does not make good policy for hunters and anglers.

That is exactly the problem I'm talking about. When people dismiss the "other side" as lunatics, is does a disservice to us all. There are lots of good democrats in the world and lots of good republicans. We are all Americans and our ability to disagree without being disagreeable is foundational to our culture. Focus on the policy and position and you'll get better results.Unfortunately Dems are f cking woke lunatics in every other facet of life.

That’s a very hard point to stand behind… so no one can ever go hunt the Dakotas unless your a resident, can never deep sea fish in Alaska or Hawaii etc unless your a resident. Can’t chase quail in Arizona unless your a resident. We all have to stay within a few square miles of our residence.. what a sad state of mind. Sucks to go through life with that mindset. ?I totally disagree with your statement about needing non-residents to 'make ends meet'. Idaho residents have already proved this in the past with their willingness to pay NR prices for second deer tags.
Offer up every NR tag to the residents as second tags at NR prices and watch them sell out like hotcakes.
I'm also curious why some folks think that NR hunting opportunity is a prerequisite for mutual support for the cause of hunting? Seems a bit petty to me. I would stand with fellow sportsmen from any state at any time, even if I didn't hunt there.
Back to the original point of this thread: Good luck to all in the draws, both NR and R. If you get the opportunity to hunt someone else's state, show some gratitude and respect. I bet it will make your hunt even more enjoyable.-----SS
State representatives serve at the pleasure of the voters. When they do stuff we don't like, we vote against them and they lose their job.How would voting for the alternative been better for sportsman?
How do you check ?Not selected
Log into your account on there websiteHow do you check ?
Not selected for Pronghorn and Deer but I did draw a Utah Antlerless Elk Tag today. I have drawn some good Idaho Tags but it has been years ago.Log into your account on there website
Mine isAnybody’s deer updated?
Same one you had a couple years ago?Archery deer tag for me! Struck out on
elk and antelope but I’m not complaining…
Horniac
No I didn’t put in for that one again since the dates conflicted with my UT elk tag…Same one you had a couple years ago?
but what units are you applying for....Lifelong resident took me 30 years to draw buck mulie tag. Stoked………
Going to be interesting hunting bucks in mid August with a high powered rifle.
You should turn that tag in since you don’t believe in the system that let you draw itHaha. I’ve done a ton of bichin, wishing Idaho would implement some sort of point’s system for non-residents and wouldn’t you know I pulled a 55 early rifle tag, sweet! Been a long time since I’ve been around that mountain, sounds like it’s gone down hill a bunch, guess we’ll see. The season dates worked out for my other hunts.

They are lunatics. All are unwilling to condemn the idiots in power and that makes them all lunatics. They are woke creeps hellbent on destroying all things good in this country.That is exactly the problem I'm talking about.

In Idaho, it's been about 30 years since the democrats were in charge of anything. The current legislature is so lopsided that you could vote for a democrat running against a republican (say one who changed the trespass laws to benefit the Wilks Bros) and it wouldn't impact state policy at all. But it might make the GOP candidates think a little longer before they screw us over on points or LAP tags or public lands or whatever other BS the ranchers or the rich guys want...
