Common from a road based hunt. I had just the opposite experience on a fly in hunt. All of the bulls taken were 40-50 inches and mature animals. Actually saw a giant and couldn't get on him in time. Newfoundland is an outstanding opportunity to chase moose with lots of animals. Some giant black...
No, who wouldn't be happy is landowners. Simply because residents wouldn't pay the outrageous prices they demand for a landowner tag. Honestly this will never happen IMO.
Which is the reason I stick with tried and true calibers that work. I have a feeling 20 years from now there will be a lot of guys stuck with calibers that must be reloaded because ammo will be non existent.
Manufacturers are trying their best to have the latest and greatest new caliber out...
Hey I play with all these numbers but, on super low odd tags at the end of the day I apply for where I want to hunt usually. I mean .5% to 2% odds is there really any reason besides nerding out to really care?😂😂 JK
But that's how I've began to apply for sheep and goat which I only apply for in...
This I can get 100% onboard with. But two questions.
1. How often have you seen systems change to the better for nonresident big three type tags lately?
2. How often have you seen tag number increase instead of decrease for nonresident applicants? Or residents for that matter.

I'm not sure I agree. Most likely the guy was packing CCW is just a guess. Would it have been better to have this occurred in a public airport while he was on the premise? The best scenario may have been to/from work but again the element of surprise is taken away, and that operation would open...
Yes and realistically probably worse. It's a diminishing return as someone already said. Tag numbers continue to drop and cost continue to go up. I had big dreams as well 30 years ago. Still no end in sight at 50. Think long and hard before you jump into Western hunting at this point. It's a...
I have as much faith in FWP numbers as I do in shooting a 210 inch buck in the breaks honestly. I think we can all agree on that.
So the tags numbers thrown up add up to around 25k tags and FWP stats puts license sold at over 71k. I'm pretty sure there wasn't 50k antlerless tags sold to NR's...
