I'll bet he's holding you all in suspense so he can come back and tell you he drew a Breaks ewe tag. 😉
I tried to pull another one of those after last year's adventure but came up empty (big surprise). Good luck to those who drew!
I'm previous years, there has come a point where the "update card" option no longer works in the draw portal. That's usually a few days before results are released.
I'm just hoping that I'm the only nonresident who thought to switch to the 003-2 goat hunt when it came available right there near the end of April (a guy can dream, right?). A ewe tag would be nice too. Odds aren't good, but at least I have the same chance as anyone else.

I got this Utah monster 6 or 7 years ago. Still my best animal to date. Not expecting anything besides general season archery deer, but there's always a chance something else can pop up!

I met a guy with a 482 tag (and...

Good luck!
