Already on it. The 2 emails I have about my private info being lost, the screenshots of my status as "Nonresident", the multiple "woops..." bulletins inculding tags sent out twice, and now all these cards messed up should be enough to say we should be able to witness the drawings. If they're...
Maybe I'm just biased but at this point does anybody else doubt the entire system more now? I have for years but as this kind of stuff happens more frequently can I really trust the Super Secret Draw is legit? They'll just blame the vendor again.
Do them publicly. Let us watch the process. If...
Sarcastically... You're F-ing kidding me... I haven't drawn deer, elk, or rifle antelope in 26 years OF APPLYING and people who didn't even apply drew!
I just checked my unlimited tag (doesn't count as drawing in my mind BTW.) The number is for the correct unit from regs a few years ago. 2022...
If there were 67 cases proving Trump innocent most people would fly it on flag poles. There's 67 cases proving voter fraud didn't happen... all those with "evidence" got called into court and they all backed off. Biden won. I hate it but he did. Not to mention the over 800 cases of J6 people who...
Any district that added a "none of the above." Box won... just think about that for a second. The vast majority is looking for ANY OTHER OPTION.
the dems are never actually going to take your guns. There's to much money in TRYING to take them. The Republicans are never going to actually fix...
Ready for this one! I drew... an unlimited tag! Just apply and pay the fee!
Nothing else.. stupid good odds on random extra antlerless stuff and still no tag.
Next year I'm throwing money on the table. Argue "Random is so much better" and bet on my tags. 20 years of 1 in 5 odds stuff. My...
Hunt apps are like setting you're dangling netherers on a wood stump. Wyoming is somebody smaking them with a blow up squeaky hammer from the fair. I don't like it now but I'll draw eventually. 26 years of apps for everything in Idaho is becoming a 32 Oz waffle framing hammer, covered in...
My bad guys, I applied. Now they have to dig through all those applications and be absolutely, beyond a shadow of a doubt, sure that my app gets pulled "unsuccessful". It takes some time because I hid it well. Sorry to hold you all up.
Edit. You guys all think I'm joking... I used to have to...
That's definitely an option. Let me just throw an idea your way though. When I was a teenager my family bought into buying a few feet of crop on either side of a fence to leave for game birds. I remember the conversation. The farmer said he made X out of those crops and we doubled it. We then...
There's definitely a reason for that trend. A lot of land is getting shut off because of us. I remember the tail end of the days when if you knocked on a farm door and asked to hunt they asked if you had friends that could come shoot more! Elk eat a lot of hay. We'd shoot them on the edge of the...
That's no joke. For all the "Random is the best." Guys who draw frequently there's those of us who put in for decades in 1 in 4 odds stuff without drawing. I've put in on a 50% odds turkey tag for 4 years.
At this point my best tags have been Salvage tags and the hides have. "GMC" Stamped on them.
I just realized I worded that wrong. 2 minutes after legal light as in. 2 minutes into the time it is legal to shoot. Very very A.M. most people still sleeping. And those of us who grew up in ag country were pretty close to houses where we hunted.
You're not wrong... it's annoying as all get out. As a fellow getting oldish guy I've talked to those pilots on fires. They're pretty easy to find. Clean jumpsuit, smoking a Cuban, wheelbarrow to carry those gigantic brass balls...
As they age those guys fly very early for a lot of reasons...
I remember about a decade ago a popular hunting journal did a "Best unit in Idaho for archery elk." Article. It was my hunting unit.
We were overrun. You couldn't find a draw without people in it. Multiple trucks at the top and bottom. All of them shocked to know me and my buddies killed 6 of...
That is definitely a good thought I had not considered. That being said the area I have chosen to hunt is not known for giants unless you hire an outfitter to take you up high. However 3 years ago driving through during the late season I applied for I saw several 160 to 170 class, nice, heavy...
I put in for a regular draw deer tag. I seriously thought about putting in on the special. But from what I read this year everyone felt like this is the year to put in on the special because of the cost increase. So I gambled the other way.
I to am curious to see how people's thinking shifted...
Participation trophy? You're thinking of "Random draws." A poker game would be a point system WITHOUT social media influence. With influence is like buying ENRON....
