New Idaho draw system.

It will be interesting... I'm more curious to see how many tags will be left over in August.

I would think that with no point system, and the price tag, that it will decrease the amount of apps in the next few yrs....but common sense seems to go outside the window with tag sales so probably the opposite will occur

Yeah, who knows...but my guess after looking at all of the other options- including $19,000 LO tags in the Gila- my bet is a lot of guys will roll the dice with $185 in Idaho.

Imo With guys needing to buy a license so they can apply for the general quota tags they will definitely apply for the controlled hunts. The non resident odds for a controlled hunt are about to plummet. They need to just be integrated together.

Also the # of guys who live close to the border in surrounding states and come to Idaho to hunt waterfowl/ upland is going to really jump. Guys like to get some use out of a license.

Both are very good points. Probably going to see more NR's in the Chukar hills. It will be interesting to see how many folks draw a MF or Selway tag on the fifth choice and pick it up.
