I'm starting to plan for this fall and have checked draw stats for several units that I have hunted or want to hunt. In the 5 or 6 units I have studied, appears that NR participation declined significantly. Certainly in a few of my old OTC archery units, seems like there were plenty of leftover tags. Is this a broader trend across the state? Was there a material decline in hunters in the field driven by fewer NR's?
would love insight from anyone who has analyzed the data or seen better summary data...
