This was part of my comments submitted. No way outfitted hunters contribute as much as DIY hunters.This is so silly. This does nothing but take money away from "normal" Wyoming businesses and sends it the outfitters way.
They can argue all they want that outfitter money goes back into the economy but does it really as much as the DIY'ers? Most hunt packages include lodging and food. So most of the money goes to the outfitter themselves. On the other hand, the average NR goes out and rents hotels (because you know damn well the average guy isn't sleeping in a tent), eats out and spends their money on a variety of smaller businesses throughout the state, not just those affiliated with outfitters.
The way I see it, this is just another opportunity for the outfitters/landowners to make more money and get much better odds for their repeat rich clients. This affect DIY'ers AND regular businesses.
The TF does not meet again until August. Today there is a G&F Commission meeting. The only two things the Commission voted on today was to limit hunters to one Type 1 antelope license per year and to remove the 7250 cap on NR elk licenses. Both passed.Is there a way to watch the meeting today online? I'm not finding a link for today's meeting.
For me it's "when will this nonsense come to an end?" Public comment has opened up for the next version of the outfitter/landowner drawing on NR licenses. Comments will be taken until Aug 5th. The new rate is now 50% of NR tags and outfitters are soliciting their clients to send in positive comments to combat the negative comments on this subject last month.

40% because the task force is so incompetent they didn't release the correct draft apparently.i'm trying to keep up and clear up how it's gone in my head before i submit comments.
what was the going rate the last time they got blistered with comments? i though it was also 50%?

Nope.^^^ You honestly think they read them?
So they will now issue less than 7250 NR elk licenses per year?The TF does not meet again until August. Today there is a G&F Commission meeting. The only two things the Commission voted on today was to limit hunters to one Type 1 antelope license per year and to remove the 7250 cap on NR elk licenses. Both passed.
That answer remains to be seen. The details have not been worked out but NO they will not issue less full priced NR elk tags any time soon. Little if any doubt in my mind that when the final proposal is made it will come with a net increase in NR full priced tags. Most likely regions that are dominated by public land, non-wilderness will see lower tag numbers while areas dominated by wilderness and private land will see an increase in tags. This is what outfitters have wanted all along and what the TF and Commission are more than happy to give them.So they will now issue less than 7250 NR elk licenses per year?
