This is what really gets me about landowner tags. I still have a hard time understanding why a landowner would get tags that they can sell that don't need to be used exclusively on private land.
I wish we would pull our heads out of our a** and put our time, effort and money into nuclear instead of solar and wind. People hear nuclear and think its horrible, but they don't realize it's the cleanest form of energy there is.
Sure there is. If you are hell bent on not hunting alone and want to go with someone and you want to make sure that you both have a tag it's a benefit. If you are going into the draw not 100% sure you will draw, then I would definitely go as a group instead of individually.
Didn't really want to start a new thread, so thought I would piggyback off of this one. Our group is mainly looking to apply for a PP this year, but we decided we might want to put down a 2nd choice that has a possibility of not drawing out in the first round. Is 2nd choice just a random...
My brother was telling me about this and at first I didn't believe him. Am I understanding this correctly that all the land(private & public) would be turned over to the tribe?
I don't think preference points are broke either, just think they need to take your points everytime you get an A tag(draw, OTC, leftover, etc). Also need to make it that if you return your tag, you can get your money back, but your points are NOT reinstated.
I really would like to see the group not change the draw at all and stick with the current PP draw, so then you are not screwing anyone over that is in the game with X amount of points.
Another way to really fight the overcrowding issue that they are trying tackle is to make everyone buy their...
It's going to be interesting what tag quotas they come out with for these 2nd and 3rd seasons. How many people are going to get caught not applying for a tag they are used to buying in June-September and find out they are SOL?
I think you could still have OTC tags as long as the other three were implemented, especially if all points were zeroed with any A tag. But in general, I am totally on board with your thinking here.
I really should have stated that my idea of points being used for any A tag would really be for NR. As a R, you should obviously have some privileges that us NRs don't have. Now if they decided to do this for R, I think it would take some time(to get through current point holders), but I do...
I have been on this bandwagon for a bit now. I really do think this would help out with the point creep and would make a person decide if they want to go after the high end tags or hunt more often with OTC/low point tags.
I don't think CO would need to go draw only if they would make it that your points would zero out(or couldn't buy a point) if you bought any OTC A tag. I also think this would help out with point creep.
I think I know the answer, but can someone please confirm this for me before I tell someone bad information. If you draw a type 4 tag, your points will be gone, but if you draw a type 6 or 7 tag, it does NOT use your points and you can still buy a PP for 2023.
