    Idaho NR Draw Bill… thoughts?

    Yes but…. I didn’t the two previous years as I had a number in 30k range. Turn backs were an option but I already had MT. Not complaining other than to say the draw wouldn’t necessarily be worse. My preference would still be for them to eliminate proxy purchase (require person with person...

    Idaho NR Draw Bill… thoughts?

    My personal experience has been… The elk zone I bought OTC in 2019 and 2020 is now unattainable. It sold out in the first 7 minutes. The best number I have had in line has been ~8k. And that has been with numerous devices. Even if I was in person at a vendor you would have to be at the very...

    Idaho NR Draw Bill… thoughts?

    You grew up in western Washington so you know how unfair things can get. [emoji1787] Just because you haven’t seen the vendor shenanigans yet doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened. Some vendors are definitely profiting off the current proxy purchase. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Kifaru pack frame fail point

    I guess that is fare if they replace the belt that got worn out due to the frame now rubbing on the belt material. I have two frames with the same issue now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    I have $100 a few weeks ago. Every hunter should be helping them with monetary support if you can. If 10,000 hunters give $100 they have a million to spend to advertise for our side. 50k = $5mm. Let’s go folks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Idaho Proposed Law Making All NR tags Go to Draw

    Get Idaho to stop offering the NR tags on December 1st and the mad rush will quiet down. Make all NR tag purchases in person only (having to show ID) starting May 1st at any Idaho vendor. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Climate change...deer numbers

    It has been mentioned in WA. Are your surprised?!? [emoji44] They don’t want to mention the real #1 which is habitat loss and the real #2 which is predator’s impact. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Idaho NR Draw Bill… thoughts?

    I have heard directly from people who have participated. I will leave it at that. If people want that system to stay I will learn to play it and pay the money. Most won’t get the chance though. When free markets discover there is economic profit to be made businesses enter and profit. Sent...

    Idaho NR Draw Bill… thoughts?

    You don’t have to agree but when vendors have a preferred list that people are buying into and that vendor is then proxy buying on the 1st before they conduct any other person sales then yes I will call that fraud. It isn’t equitable and I don’t like the trend where the person with the most...

    Idaho NR Draw Bill… thoughts?

    I know what he is referencing but I am not posting it here. Let’s just say an online system that doesn’t give you a random number AFTER you log into your Idaho account makes it possible to have many spots in line assigned to you. If they could figure out the tech to put you in the waiting room...

    OTC with a BUNCH of fraud. If you are in the know you can buy your place in line. A draw isn’t perfect but it would make it more equitable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Idaho Proposed Law Making All NR tags Go to Draw

    There are a lot of problems with the current OTC system. The department can’t regulate the pay for your price in line that has started. Vendors literally have a list they go through before they help anyone standing in line. So given they can’t stop proxy tag purchase as of now they could with a...

    This bill would end OTC in Idaho. I am not opposed if they don’t attach preference points and allow a party to apply together. Max of 4. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Kifaru pack frame fail point

    It is wearing a hole through the belt and will continue to do so unless patched. So now the belt needs to replaced. My expectations would be for them to take it in and patch since it is a design flaw. It will wear unless you don’t use the pack. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Kifaru pack frame fail point

    I have the same wear issue on my duplex frame. The frame is about 4 years old. Use has been about 30 days a year and have hauled out ~ 8 elk. Is Kifaru’s answer really just to say “tough luck?” I have been using Kifaru only since 2012. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I dont understand the hostility towards wolf reintroduction in Colorado

    That isn’t the agenda of the antihunting orgs. They have zero intention of letting residents hunt predators to control the populations. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Then you haven’t been paying attention. It will lead to less ungulates on the landscape. You will have less hunting opportunities. Go hug your antihunting buddies and book your tee time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
