Pretty sure they'll be hunting all public land.

I am glad you won't. One less guy in the draws. I agree, why kill big bulls and increase your success rate. That would be stupid. These comments are why people keep telling me to post things in told on the Internet forums. Congrats to the guy spending his hard earned $ on a dream tag.
Take your kids into the outdoors. They are our future. Support conservation by joining and participating in future through NRA, SCI, RMEF, Wild Sheep or any of the other great organizations.
