Utah General Elk Tag

Got busy with work and neglected to jump in right at the 8:00am open. This is not encouraging...

Well according to that you’re almost there

Thats nuts. When did spike and any bull tags get so popular tags in UT? Is it because people can’t regularly draw deer tags anymore?

 

[Jape]

Crazy. At least they show that number so you know if you're wasting your time.

 

[Wildabeest]

I’m sure all the rifle tags will be gone by the time I get in, but maybe there will be some muzzy tags left. Each are capped at 15,000 tags. If not, bow tags are unlimited. Wasn’t planning to get back into bow hunting this year, but that might change now...

Don't worry I got you.... Thankful I wasn't wanting one of those tags this year.

I got in around 7:50am........haven't moved for a few hours. Also was wondering, can't find it in the guidebook, do we lose LE Elk bonus points when we buy OTC or is that just buck deer?

So much for the theories that said covid was going to reduce interest in elk tags . . . .

I should have took a pic when I was in the 300+K lol, internet blinked and it booted me to back of line. Sitting at 1408 ATM

 

[Wildabeest]

5-1/2 hrs and I’ve gone from 71,000 to 8,400... Should be able to get my official rejection around dinner time.

That's not correct.
There are 15,000 total tags available for general bull and 15,000 for spike only areas. In each group there could be 14,000 rifle and 1000 muzzleloader tags sold or 10,000 rifle and 5,000 muzzleloader.
It just depends on what people buy up to 15,000 total.

At least I'm in line.

Hang in there- buddy got in late around lunch, but was more like #250 and was able to get a tag.

I want to try different states each year but after seeing that:

 

[Wildabeest]

Just got in. Rifle/Muzzy tags sold out. Spike only still available. I’ll stick with my current buck deer and cow elk tags. May pick up an archery tag, but those are unlimited so no rush.

 

[bowhuntmontana]

I blame Rob Bishop.

Times like these "I TOLD YOU SO" just doesn't seem enough....

I blame Rob Bishop.
