Podcast on wounding
(~16:00) I think Randy mentioned about 350 and dialed to about 350yds? And probably trotting at closer to 400yds by the time the buck was hit for the first time? Yeah, that's probably equivalent to the 600 yd controlled/prone shot comparison. Maybe more comparable to 800-1000yds from prone at...- 232401a

Podcast on wounding
Randy said his pre-2010 lost animal count was zero (zero over 35 years). Now, several wounds since 2010 once camera review is available? I suspect pre-2010 Randy was much more like the rest of us than he believes he was. Pre-2010 Randy is free to be one-shot BuzzH because the video evidence...- 232401a

Podcast on wounding
1. If you want legislative action on wounding, keep posting your wound & continue stories online. Plenty of them on this site and others for a legislator to cite to. 2. If a state charges $2,000-$6,000 and 30+ years of point accumulation for a tag, they shouldn't be surprised that the...- 232401a

Archery - Where to start - first year elk hunting
This year, apply NM & Idaho random. All species that you can get in for the base license purchase. Make a trip this year only if you draw a good tag in those 2 states. Get CO d/e points. And buy WY d/e/a points (as well as apply for WY random) this year and keep researching for 2024 or... -

SF088 Contact House TRW
NO portion of any system for high demand tags can include a preference point component of any size. Has Colorado taught us nothing about preference systems? Suared bonus was a reasonable long term solution. 50-50 random/preference is not a long term solution. The preference side is already... -

Ask your onX Hunt questions here!
Yup, NW Wyoming covered in snow wasn’t helpful at all for my last tag. Sure, let a user toggle to winter imagery if they want to see that. But using winter imagery as your default imagery is a mistake. Google imagery saved the day. Can’t wait for Google to turn on property boundary and a...- 232401a

Going into AZ draw with 15 points, any suggestions ?
15pt average. So, I’d split that in to two years of hunting. You’ve been satisfied with CO hunting for 25-30 years. Those two years in AZ might be the best elk hunting you’ve ever seen. One bull elk tag in AZ elk camp has always been plenty of stress for me.- 232401a

Loan for hunting
If I were to look at the finances of a person that took out a loan to hunt, I suspect the $30K Dalll loan would be far from the only thing I would be critical of.- 232401a

What to do with 8 Wyoming elk points?
BP and BP-squared/cubed states may never need to make major changes. The PP states will slowly catch on and convert to some type of BP/random model (as WY seems to be doing). AZ added the 5/5 NR split, etc. CPW will be the last to understand. They're slow like that. I will be shocked... -

What to do with 8 Wyoming elk points?
On balance, I don’t think it would matter much if states disallowed POINTS ONLY apps. In almost every state/species/system, I could find a way to apply for an unobtainable (or nearly unobtainable) tag. So, I’d still get my annual point even if I couldn’t technically apply for POINTS ONLY. And... -

FOIA - $150 WY NR Wilderness Rule Fine amount; WY 23-2-401(a)
Good point, I would be unable to attest to the B&C fair chase affidavit. I can forego book entry because WGFD let me keep the meat and trophy and I will only pay $150 for my WY Wilderness experience. -

Wyoming NR Sheep Tags
Isn't it widely assumed that the task force "letters" will mostly be passed pretty easily by the WY legislature in some form? At least the letters that passed with clear super majorities. Like the 14-2 vote on the PP to BP conversion...- 232401a

FOIA - $150 WY NR Wilderness Rule Fine amount; WY 23-2-401(a)
Yes, such a horrible record to have. Run a stop sign while you’re an NR in WY to hunt a wilderness area without a guide? Stop sign violations are also class C, $150. 31 - 5 -222(b) Stop sign C -

I doubt you’d be able to. Gail & Sandy Johnson probably have locked gates. Out of necessity – who wouldn’t lock up their cow camp?- 232401a

CPW Commission updating 80/20 allocation
That CPW commission is an outfitter owned group of rednecks. I found myself cheering for them to find their next words. I was typically able to rework the sentence myself to make it coherent. Looking at their bios, I was expecting more polish. Although the bios made it clear they don't... -

Proposal to eliminate non-resident sheep tags in New Mexico
I would want to try to claw back those 49 ram tags NM residents lost as well. That was wrong and 8 years is far too long to wait for NMGFD to correct that time period of unreasonably high NR allocation. But not sure I would then try to reposition this battle as “all of us DIY res&NR vs...- 232401a

Are we lucky in some ways to be hunting in CA?
Yes, Californians are lucky as you effectively have almost 0% nonresident tag allocation for antelope, elk and sheep. Those silly Coloradans mentioned are sharing 10-35% of their comparable tags with Californians. Can you imagine how it would feel to share with your neighbors in the same...- 232401a

FOIA - $150 WY NR Wilderness Rule Fine amount; WY 23-2-401(a)
Free if you're close friends/family with a WY resident who will babysit an NR. I think most NRs experience these free permits as the non-permitted guiding industry. A few hundred dollars per day for an under-the-table WY resident guide But yes, WGF calls it free. -

Proposal to eliminate non-resident sheep tags in New Mexico
I can't see any action on this in either the August or October minutes. What happens now? Curious why walk around kicking? The lumping trick was messy, but why do you care whether 84/10/6 is in statute or agency lumping practice?- 232401a
