Few years back I said the same thing of access for 24B and you basically said it in a nice way to don’t do that

I could be wrong but I believe this to be true. From what Ive seen in the hunting field and I believe that Game and fish has a statistic that they try to get as many tags in a area that doesn't hurt the population. Almost every draw hunt ive been on its always during a full moon. Lots of hunters go in and day one is where most kills happen. Day 1 you here shots all day. Day 2 you hear 1-2 shots in that day. The hunting pressure is so much with so many tags the animals take advantage of the moon light and go nocturnal. Hunters usually go home on Sunday and only the serious hunters will stay till the end which is just a hand full of them. Have you ever stayed out to Monday or Tuesday? You never run into another hunter. Then there is some success there. So in conclusion Game and Fish make the biggest bang for your buck (need to treat it like a business to succeed) A lot of people are happy they get drawn and hunt. Its just success rates are down. Once enough are taking then game and fish drops the tags. Ive kept lots of old regulation. Lots of tags in a area with low % kills they drop it by 50-200 tags. Funny in the next year when they drop it % kills from 15-20% goes up to 38% the next year. Less pressure more kills!!! Lets say 600 tags with 15% harvest thats 90 harvest. Then they drop to 400 tags with 35% success rate thats 140 harvest. They always adjust to hit that 20% range. Then bump up to 500 tags to many kills last year. Then it hits 20% success rate equals 100 harvest. So just my opinion they try to get as many tags to keep it around 20-25% success rates. Enough tags to make money and enough people to keep happy. So if the Antis buy tags and ditch it all it does is kill more animals!!! Thanks Antis!!!

Uh but thats texas! Where they feed and water the animals so they keep coming back! It will be close to the same but probably not in the numbers of what Texas has in a small area

Take a map. Close your eyes. Put your hand in the air. Point your finger down. Let it Land on the map! Go to that spot and I promise if you glass the area you will find Coues.

Keep us posted. Hope you can get your hands on one and let us know what you like dislike. Im still waiting for your Lance shooting Youtube channel

I totally agree with showing vids and pic of the pets being taken and killed by coyotes. Taking a Liberal pet is a federal offence in their eyes and eating it is murder! They will want a trail for that yote soon to come!

Good luck!

Sure! If your only looking for meat to fill your freezer

Word of advise, when you hunt always be looking for a long range spot. Something that involves a road that you can drive to your shooting spot and be safe enough to shot that direction with a back drop. For me I was able to find something pretty close. Its a diamond in the rough and easy to get too. Found it when I was looking for some close spots for quail

If you had one brand choice for AZ camo set ( pants+ shirt) which would you pick?
Zeke-BE replied to Gut Pile's topic in Other Hunting Gear
Kuiu is nice but Sitka seems to fit me better! I used to use all the 20-60 dollars camo and they worked great. But once you try the high end stuff man I can't go back. Its like using high end glass. You can't go back to your Vortexs ever again -

Nosler Long Range Accubond for hunting???
Zeke-BE replied to lionhunter's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Ive heard better results with accubonds than the long range ones. But on that matter the only rifle Ive heard great results were with the .270 wsm which you got -
