It looks like opportunity is going to be less under the quota system. Can’t wait to see what the late desert hunts are going to look like. 

It will be a zoo. Can you imagine what 36B is going to look like when its the last unit left with any quota to use? Considering a lot of the desert ones are the close ones to CA we are likely to get an eye opener there as well. This is better than the alternative, but kicking the can down the road, no doubt.

I hadn't thought of CA. Might make it even more interesting

I know guys that fish, golf, build sh.t and they use a CB and they still never kill anything.

If you all look back in time, archery pig was OTC for years.  Then archery got ez, bows with 80% let off, laser range  finders… too many pig hunters in the same convenient places.   Deer is now the same, but archery is even easier with adjustable sights, Self centering laser sights.

it’s equipment,ie more efficient and easier that creates more hunters in the field. And cross bows allow some  to stay in the field.  I don’t know anyone who decided they wanted to bow hunt and went looking for a crossbow permit…… it took wounding an elk ( non fatal) at what should have been a guaranteed  kill shot to convince me my hand drawn bow days were over after 43 years . I was adamant I could still accurately shoot going into that hunt.  

I agree with those who say it will all go to draw, you will have to choose your weapon.  I predict there will a lot less “bow hunters” when that choice has to be made..
