    Left Over Elk Tag List B.S.!!!

    I posted this elsewhere. . . Something doesnt smell right on the leftover list this year. Several of those hunts are regularly WAY over-subscribed. 4A Youth - Last year there were 600 applicants for 100 tags. Seems like way more of a shift than is reasonable. But maybe its a misprint and that is a youth Hopi tag. Unit 1 Dec Cow hunts - Last year those hunts were over-subscribed by a combined quantity of 2,900 applicants. This year, each hunt has one leftover. Seems dang unlikely to have a swing in application patterns that big. I am wondering if perhaps there were rejected cards, that also had a second rejected card and no attempt to continue with the next applicant occurred. Also seems statistically improbable that so many cow tags had this occur, particularly in close succession by hunt number. Something here feels like a systemic or algorithmic failure.

    It's a little different if you're talking 3c. They split the hunts up this year He is talking about Unit 1 cow tags. Same exact hunts last year had 3k applicants for 600 tags. This year each had 1 extra.

    No, they dont. When you apply for a leftover tag and are not successful they just send your envelope back return to sender without cashing the check.

    Are you non resident? Also several units have two hunts for cow at different times make sure it's not a different hunt. Or you didn't put in for what you thought you did. Sometimes the nr 10% quota gets met and they can't give nr a tag after that even if there are no residents to take it. Something doesnt smell right on the leftover list this year.

    Great bulls guys. I am starting to be a little more encouraged. Did you guys all hunt the full 14 days? I wont be able to take anywhere near that long, but since thanksgiving weekend is in there I should be able to string a few together.

    Day One Results

    1 more week!I sure hope not. I dont think there have been any new hits today. Hopefully they start posting those babies up.Seems like always on the Tuesday a week and half later after charges is when they have results posted. Noone in the family drew so I hope it's a month til results kidding have a few friends that drew that I'll be helping so want to see where we will be. I am hoping that because they arent calling people for replacement cards that we will get results a little bit early Id really like to hear if I have a 4b late tag or early tag again this year

    From my recent buying experience, $1799 does not include shippping, tax, or tripod adapter for a new pair. Lowest all in price I found was $2099 + adapter.

    Yes I could pointguard, but since I had a tag last year there really isnt any reason to.

    They already fixed this. You no longer lose your loyalty point and they charge cards right away. I tried to get my app rejected this year and it didnt even work.

    No one really knows this year because its the first time they have not had to call people with bad cards. But I could see it being as soon as the end of the week. And now I Jinxd it.

    How big is a big pronghorn

    B&C all time minimum is 375 and 82 respectively. As far as when do they start looking massive, 7 of mass on the bottom two measurements is enough to make a buck look big. But like others have said, some bucks really poop out on their top mass. IMO top mass is the hardest part of a buck to judge, spend time trying to get that figured out.

    Ouch, unfortunately nothing you can do. I'd suggest not using a debit card next time. Curious what hunts you may have missed out on? Yeah, "lesson learned." Doesn't really ease the pain when I totally know better and its my own fvcking fault. Yes, I'm pouting. So what. The hunt I missed was late archery 22N. A prize for no one but me. What makes it worse is I applied with a buddy so he loses too. I'm so effing pissed I can't think straight; took the day off work... CO OTC it is. Instead of being pissed you should be thanking heaven. Worst tag in the state.

    Do this. Why wait 20+ years to hunt one day? Go use a bow and have a chance at the biggest bucks before anyone else. Success rates on archery goat are getting much better.
