Catching up on this thread and saw that Buzz got banned. How the heck did that happen? Not trying to derail but was surprised to see that. Know a lot of people dislike the guy but why did he get banned?
Are you sure, even on this page he has posted and doesn’t show him greyed out when one is banned but it wouldn’t shock me if he was banned.

When I look back over his posts in this thread, they all show the grey "banned" box in them.

The "Grand Compromise ." Who comes up with this crap? Maybe I'm looking at this wrong ,but everything I see here negatively affects NR DIY elk/deer hunters. The video shown above pretty much sums up the attitude of Wyoming legislators towards NR's ( no surprise.obviously I don't vote in his state) There is no entity representing NR''s . Does anyone really believe anything coming out of these proposals will benefit NR''s ? We are at the bottom of the heap, all the while funding a large percentage of Game and Fish. A number of you guys here were involved in threads a couple months ago discussing a number of the same issues that look like they're heading into reality. Who knows? (June ?)
There are other issues regarding wyoming/western elk hunting and access. Corner crossing, elk "superherds" on private land while public land is barren due to harboring. "Rich"(not a class envy guy) out of state landowners working the system for bull tags for their private elk herds. Wolf introductions. Federal land privatization. Political appointees to positions with negative views towards hunting.
Strange....-NR's enemy on tags while being allies on other issues.

If he got banned, its LONG overdue. He is condescending to everyone.

I was tired of it, seems I wasn't alone. I have no doubt he cares and does a lot on behalf of hunting and access. He’s certainly intelligent and knowledgeable. But he would get a lot more accomplished and inspire a lot more people to get involved to impact positive change if he changed how he interacted with people.

I have very little patience for people who perform acts of charity, then act poorly toward others, and when they get called out on their poor attitude, act shocked and point to their charity.

There is an old saying, run into an asshole, chances are you ran into an asshole. Run into assholes all day, chances are YOU are the asshole.

I didn’t think the video was terrible, not great but I believe a state congressman needs to have his constituents best interest in mind.

And I think him saying that there are multiple industries that could be affect by this is good. Yes the guides will benefit from the proposal, but he understands it will hurt restaurants, hotels, grocery stores, gas stations, etc etc.

Guides won’t benefit. Season lengths will stay the same and those guys will work the same number of days. It will just mean that outfitters will be able to cut their advertising costs by a huge percentage. All they have to say now is guaranteed tags. Plus they will no longer need to book a surplus of hunters just to make sure that they fill the roster. Everyone they book will hunt. It’s win win win for the outfitters and nobody else.

I agree with you. That’s how I took the congressmen’s speech, it will hurt a lot of people. Maybe I’m wrong and that’s not what he meant.

WYOGA is looking out for non residents, just ask them or the nr who pay for their services. The entire special side of the nr elk draw being reserved for outfitted clients is a dream come true for a nr who uses an outfitter.
Been brushing up on sarcastic humor Bob? LOL

Yeah they’re doing me a huge favor! Who wants to spend $1300 on a license that allows me to carry an 800 pound animal off of a mountain anyway?

Are they selling any WYOGA hats or patches? I'll sew one on and guess I'm good to hunt . None of that point/drawing waiting around foolishness.

On a different note this would be a really good time for Montana to put a non resident welcome mat at the front door in some way shape or form. The Let MT Help You Boycott Wyoming Promo
