Man, your bitching and moaning is never ending. You never have a single productive contribution to any conversation. It’s just more crying about your lot in life as a NR. It’s time to accept the fact that your opportunities are dwindling fast. Thrashing around like a toddler is not going to change anything.
Yes, the residents should have preference for every aspect of the process including the primary draw, secondary draw, returns, and leftovers. You’ve gotten greedy with how good CO has treated NRs to date and are freaking out on a public forum as the state shifts the priority back towards the residents, where it should always have been. Desperation is not endearing.
How do they do Resident/NonResidents allocations in your state? Always complaining about Colorado.
Now you're starting to understand what Wyoming Residents have been going through.
I think they didn't go far enough the nr tags are theirs and residents tags are theirs what ever those numbers are they should stay the same and if there are resident tags still leftover at the start of season oh well.
Why not let folks apply for MSG tags, all three in a given year, BUT can only draw one. If pull one of the tags, your other apps are relegated to earning a point only if bought the point option. All three are so hard to draw, folks should be able to apply each year, just not draw more than one at a time (like too many guys, including me, have done.)
I agree.
The recommendation to go OIL if you shoot a ram or goat specifically excludes auction and raffle tags, so there is still a carrot for folks that only GAF if they have a chance to shoot another one.
I agree 100 percent that all those species should be OIL. I know of people that have drawn 3 rocky tags and a desert in their lifetime in Colorado while others die without even experiencing one. I think if your successful you’re out.
Not trying to call you out specifically, but I get tired of hearing this argument. I guess the appearance of fairness is important to people, despite potential negative unintended consequences of that policy.
I don’t know if I agree with this if you care about the animals and actually put personal time, effort and resources towards It those individuals aren’t going to quit because they drew a tag because they probably always expected to never draw and were still doing those actions and efforts.
I just think that sheep hunting in particular is so rare that as many people as possible should experience it and the best way to do that is by trying to spread the wealth. I do apply for the best odd hunts with the worst odds of killing a ram, goat, moose. Let me guess you have either drawn a sheep tag and are hoping to draw another or your sitting in a lot of points and know you will likely draw in the coming years and don’t want to loose your chance to jump back in for round two?
I also don’t think it’s about being fair or equal I think it’s the fact that it’s a limit resource and so it’s trying to passed around to everyone as well as the agency is trying to do there job by getting there way through the system.
Yes I have drawn a sheep tag in Colorado. I drew the tag with the worst success rate in the state and *magically* it didn't take that long. I ate my tag.
I agree and understand that but from a point of view of the CPW commission and department they don’t care and dont care about Montana unlimited opportunity they care about showing effort to push people through the system and everyone having a fair shake. I mean at the end of the day we are both welcomed to our point of views and interest and we don’t have to agree but it doesn’t matter it’s in the hands of the commission and there choice.
