GOD I FREAKING HOPE SO!!!!I believe that it eventually go beyond rate increases. I am believing that a draw system for NR hunters is inevitable.

Yep. The only difference is people can't apply as a group/party. I hope they make that change in the future.You already have a draw now. When you log in to buy a tag, they assign you a "RANDOM" number and you go in the waiting room. Idaho's draws are all random for control hunts.
OTC tags available as wellControlled hunts are still out there....

I was referring to the guys saying their group can't hunt together. They can still give controlled hunts a shot.OTC tags available as well
Gotcha. Plenty of otc tags for groups as well, if they're still interested.I was referring to the guys saying their group can't hunt together. They can still give controlled hunts a shot.

Utah raised their prices as well, something to keep in mind. Utah is far better for LE hunts than their any bull hunts. Those any bull OTC units get pounded with pressure. You gotta find 19 friends to go with you if you decide on Utah. I think that's about the minimum required for spotters and camp hangers around.Tags sold out in 2 days in the unit I usually hunt. Now I'm scrambling to find a new place to hunt. Possibly Colorado, maybe Utah.
You are exactly right. The NR tags have been capped for years, it's only been the last couple of years that they have sold out before residents had a chance at the left overs.Haven’t hunted Idaho since the 90s, it was good.
How do guys like gohunt, newberg and elk101 say there are not more nonresidents hunting Idaho? Yes the tags are capped but they didn’t used to sell out to nonresidents. And they even talk about how it used to be so easy for a resident to get two and even multiple tags. Sounds like more non residents to me. What am I missing?
That gohunt video was pathetic. If you are building a business on getting more people to hunt and then whine like that on a YouTube video... I wouldn’t spend a penny with them based on that attitude alone.
The west side of Idaho is huge! The general hunts are busy, the controlled hunts are hard to draw.What is elk hunting like on the west side of ID?
