    Curtis, Bonus pass is 20% so would be tag 1-40. Looks like you drew in the bonus pass. 

     

    Yeah that may be…. I think though the first 30 are resident and 10 to non res for 40 total?  If I understand it correctly, 10% go to non res (5% bonus pass and 5% random)?  If you look at 2023, there were also 200 tags and only 30 went to residents in bonus pass.

    I was considering the Lift as an upgrade over my Halon 32 but decided to keep the Halon.  But I did drop it off at Timber Mesa last week for a tune, new string and a new custom sight tape.  The Lift looks nice and is very light but sticker shock scared me away. With tax it would have been like $1600!  I remember when the flagship bows cost $999.99.

    I’ll start off by saying I’m grateful and excited to have drawn an early archery bull tag in 5bs!  I can’t wait…..  but I think I made a mistake on my application strategy.

    So, I had 10 pts, and when looking at the odds before any possible point creep I was 50/50 chance at both 5bs and 5bn early archery. I put 5bs as my #1 pick and 5bn as #2.

    I drew 5bs tag #31.

    I could be wrong, but i’m pretty sure tag #31 was the first tag issued after the bonus pass (200 tags).  So I drew that tag in the random 1/2 pass. It got me thinking that I kinda screwed up on my strategy and should have put a primo trophy hunt as #1 and then either 5bs or 5bn as my #2.

    For all I know, I could have had the first pick of the 1/2 random pass and could have snagged a top tier early hunt in a trophy unit.  If not, I still would have drawn one of the 5b tags.  

    Am I correct in second guessing my app strategy?  If I drew tag #30 I wouldn’t be thinking about the ‘what if’.

    Maybe we should all come here just to promote our businesses instead of discussing hunting activities.

    Yeah, the CWT forum is buzzing with non stop hunting discussion and new topics (not).  

    If it weren’t for draw results, classifieds and sharing photos of the sloppy joe I made for dinner this forum would be dead.

    By the way…. what does “What I had for dinner” have to do with hunting exactly?

    Bad take.
