Yes this is a mess. I hope that we can address this issue in reasonable and measured way. I hate the idea of knee jerk reactions and giving an inch to the likes of WY Untrapped etc. The guy is a moron, but is this really something that needs new regulations? I shy away from any cruelty laws...
Umm… Draw application period for Colorado is already closed for this year. You could try the 2nd draw and see if you can find a left over. But you chances of hunting deer in Colorado for this year are pretty slim in CO.
At what point do we simply realize that we can not and will not have what we once had in an area? The left will no doubt see this as an opportunity to further restrict consumptive use, they will use it to further lock out and remove people of all types from the landscape. At some point we must...
As a nonresident I sent a quick email. I have received a few responses. My email focused on how the NAM model is important and that anti hunters and animals rights activist are fundamentally opposed to the model.
Is there anything we can do to make sure HB60 is dead? I got several responses to 111 from my last email. Some reps were really interested in understanding.
Haha. In Colorado you have a system where private land owners make money hand over fist pumping out tags. Sorry but we do not have such a system and we should never have such a system.
Landowner tags should be only for the land they are issued and should not be transferable.
Hey Buzz. I am thinking I need to fire off a bunch of emails to kill this bill. With the budget blowing up and the legislature fighting.
Does it seem like we could attack this bill over the $5,000,000 general funds? Maybe get it all tossed over the $$$?
I think it depends on the land owner and agreement. Depending on the area. I have hunted a ton in access yes and the landowners are very excited to have it. It must be worth something to them? I know the one area has agreed to have access yes, and it coincidentally also has a cow elk licenses...
Sent mine last week. I strongly hammered the reasonable access definition. And said they should change the wording to include that property must be enrolled in the HMA or access YES programs instead.
I encouraged them to make the access yes and the hma programs so great that landowners want to...
This is a horrible bill. I sent emails to 2 days ago and no response at all.
I highlighted that this would be a great way to gut and hurt the HMA and the Access YES programs.
Instead of creating this new cost the state should look at ways to sweeten the pot for those who are willing to...
Before ever messing with chains, why don’t guys actually runs good off road tire? The good aggressive tire is all I have ever needed. Throttle control and knowing how to drive will trump chains any day. I have only one put chains on in all my years. It was for a short 10 foot section of flow ice...
I am in Fremont County. Lander/Riverton. I just submitted my volunteer application to the Game and Fish. It will be interesting to see if they add a chunk of instructors or not…
I do help with 4H Archery, Rifle, Pistol.
I do not think this is a huge win in WY at this time. But watching other...
So this may not seem like a big deal to some… WY is now offering a Teacher “Endorsement” for hunter education. This will allow teachers to be paid and use part of the regular school day to teach a hunters education course.
This will increase access for the youth, and increase the number of...
Hymmm... Never considered myself to be overloaded. Busy and hardworking, yes... But I am not sure that I have ever felt overloaded. I know this, driving truck with my CDL is far more stress than I have ever felt in a classroom or in my various educational positions... There is something to be...
