    Welcome HuntScore--New Research Service

    Can you hit us up at [email protected] with the units and/or species you saw zero hunters /zero success for? There are some states/species combos where states don't collect data sufficient to compute success. So its possible that could be the issue. In those cases we fall back on harvests...

    Wyo Task Force - Nonres Comments!

    For whitetail deer, Kansas and Iowa have draws for nonresidents. Kansas, for instance, issues around 22k tags for 27k apps. Missouri, Arkansas, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan are all OTC with no cap. Turkey in KS, MO and AR are OTC with no cap. So bunch of good populations that can support it...

    Wyo Task Force - Nonres Comments!

    Yeah, we are talking past each other. Those are the current statues. The task force can recommend new statues, to change existing stateus, or remove existing statues. So they may choose to work with what exists (under your scenario) or start fresh. They will then make recommendations to the...

    Wyo Task Force - Nonres Comments!

    Huh...last I checked there weren't any statues on 90-10 since it doesn't exist. Thanks for making some! I'll get right on incorporating these new statues into the spreadsheet! I'll assume positive intent and read between the lines and take the greater point that I should have explicitly stated...

    Wyo Task Force - Nonres Comments!

    Yeah the previous 10 pages show residents and nonresidents both really like the Big 5 and every other species. I'm certain we'll never be able to know who its more important to. Fiscally the big 5 is small compared to antelope, deer and elk which are being consider next for 90-10 split. The...

    Wyo Task Force - Nonres Comments!

    For those who are interested in impact to license cost, here is a little spreadsheet I put together. This doesn't account for fewer nonresidents applying and the corresponding impact to preference point revenues, which are substantial at $12M. So this is a best case scenario view. Adjust the...

    Not entirely sure yet. CDFW is analyzing my request for draw statistics. I'd say it will be within the next 30-60 days if it follows most other states (after request acknowledgment). Call me an optimist (or deranged) but I'm gonna assume California will be like the others!

    Welcome HuntScore--New Research Service

    Thanks for the welcome! Colorado and Idaho will have some tag opportunities through returned and leftover tags so that is always an option. The tags sell out in minutes so you'll have to camp on the website to try and be the first one to buy but the site will send you alerts so you know what...

    Wyo Task Force - Nonres Comments!

    My comment to the task force was basically that while across the board cuts to nonresidents undeniably increases resident opportunity, it's a blunt tool. Allowing WGFD to manage individual draw quotas to 90-10 where warranted would likely be more effective at addressing resident opportunity...

    I have a really stupid question

    If you can hunt off some familiar trails first that might be a good starting place. Its easy to keep your wits about you until you get on some animals. Then you might find your mind singlely focused :) At least that would happen to me when I was younger and hunting unfamiliar ground. Get on some...
