Thanks Doug! Looks like we might have a few more chances at sheep tags this year!!! (there's always hope)

No sheep hunt in 40A again. I will only be applying for a bonus point this year for sheep.

Unit 1, 3-a, 3-c and 7 archery deer returning to OTC, sweet! Many-many others are going to like this too!! thanks for heads up Doug

They are adding permits to unit 15d for sheep to a total of 9!!!! That just seems like too many permits for that hunt, but the sheep must be doing good.

Gonna be alot of diehard sheep hunters upset about the increase in tags. Good luck to everybody in the second draw.

Why would they be upset? The 15s had been declining severely and is nice to see a positive change. Also the expansion into 6A becoming a huntable population. In 1995, there were 111 permits; 97 proposed this year.

I think the 22 hunt is going to really frustrate people and having 9 tags for 15d is going to have a negative impact on the herds up there in my opinion.

I'm glad to see they seperated the whitetail from the mule deer hunts in 22 this year.

 

Ok, I am about to make myself look stupid but what does the red and green numbers mean after the permit numbers? Let's say we are looking at the deer permits.

The red is the tags that were taken away and the green is tags added.

I hope this isn't a sign of things to come. I would have figured it out sooner or later but thanks Shelvin. Really I would have.

The one thing I dont like is they Want to start the early hunts in 12a and 12b even earlier.

Good thing is they lowered permits for 12a.
