    I have a 3x3 but my personal best will be the one i take this year! ;)

     

     

    My thoughts exactly. I have a problem waiting for the big one.. :rolleyes: All I have shot are little ones, the biggest being a 3x3 with no eyeguards.

     

    I get to try it again this year, maybe I will have more patience!! :P

    The call that I like the best and have had the best luck with is this one. "here elk, here elky elky, here elk" You can use it loudly at first for a locater, then tone it way down with your hands when they are in close. Had lots of luck with that one. :lol: :P :rolleyes:

     

     

    Sorry, I am in that kind of mood today, I couldn't resist!! :lol:

    Ummm, thats pretty much what I was saying, but thanks for the lesson of the day... :( :P

     

    I think everybody knows how they work and what they maybe are supposed to do, but thats not always what happens, like we both said, it's luck of the draw. There are plenty of things they could do that would be better than the current system. I am and have always been for a waiting period, you draw a bull tag or a premium tag of any kind, you can't put in for two or three years. Those of us that wait alot longer than that it wouldn't make a difference anyway..

    I am for a change in the system as well but like most of the posts not sure which is the best. I do know a close friend of mine drew an early archery bull tag in unit 1 last year and sure enough he drew early archry bull in 27 this year.......something is wrong

    You got that right!!! I have guys I know that get drawn for the same unit I put in for almost every year and I just get another point YAHOO! :lol:

     

     

    I agree. That shows a huge problem with our system and that points mean nothing. It's all luck, and I don't see this proposal doing anything to help. I know a couple of guys that drew archery bull tags 3 years in a row, thats wrong!!

    Well, I have a couple guns I do not need and will most likely never shoot. I don't really need to sell them, but if somebody here would use them, then it's better than sitting in the cabinet. Don't know if anybody would be interested at all in these or not but here ya go.

     

    Both of these rifles are brand new, never been fired.

     

    Stevens 30/06 bolt action kinda grey synthentic stock, no scope.

     

    Savage 7MM bolt action black synthetic stock, no scope.

     

    Not much of a gun guy and not sure what they may be worth, so if you are interested, let me know. If anyone needs anymore information or pictures, let me know and I will do what I can.

     

    Thanks,

    ( A person hunting archery deer for the last 15 years who now has to put in for a draw on prime archery hunts should not have to wait for 5 failed attempts to get 1 loyalty bonus point) ...

     

    Thanks

    Not sure I would be behind this or not, it would take a lot of discussing and ironing out lots of details before I would back it. Besides, like most on here said, G&F aint gonna buy it, it does not benefit them in any way. Anyways, our draw system is a mess and bonus points mean nothing, it's all luck of the draw anyway.

     

    F.Y.I. The loyalty bonus point is given to you for applying at least once for that species for five years. It has nothing to to with successful or unsuccessful attempts.
