I hadnt seen that language in the msg book. Can always learn something new.

Does the nonres 10% per species quota max out each year?

Looks like moose isn't really affected by the 10% species quota but goat and sheep are

I think I'm going to try and put in for a Moose tag next year. We hunt white tail in November up on the pan handle, and last year I saw two moose in two different areas. The first one must have been 60' from tip to tip, he was about 75-100 yards up a hillside and didn't stick around long when he heard me coming on the quad. The second was about 48" and about 40 yards up the hill from me, wasn't spooked by me or the quad. Both were the biggest animals that I've ever seen.

I stand corrected as well...how do they regulate it?  Who loses the tag(s) once they exceed the 10%? Do they draw in order of hunt #, in which case NR's are better off applying for lower hunt #'s or do they just re-draw all tags if they end up exceeding 10% NR?

Threads like this do wonders for those great drawing odds...

I would imagine they draw the name out of the hat first, then look to see if the desired tag is still available and if the applicable caps have been met.

That works hunt by hunt, but if you reach 10% total NRs (e.g., 4 NR goat tags) and you still have say 5 hunts to draw...none of those remaining hunts can have a single NR drawn?  This is why I was so certain there were no "species" caps...I don't know how they regulate it, and they don't describe it in the regs, but its obviously an important feature in application strategy for NRs.  I'm a lifetime license holder so none of this applies to me personally.

They wouldn't go hunt by hunt, but species by species. Take all goat applicants and draw one out of the hat. Look at his hunt choice. If there is still a tag available for that unit and the NR caps have not been met, he gets a tag. Repeat. At some point individual hunts fill up or the caps get met and people start getting passed over. For goats, better bank on being one of the first four NRs to get drawn out of the hat and hope those in front of you didn't choose the same unit.

That makes sense pretty well couse. How many total goat apps were there? I dont care about any of this anymore. I drew already for moose and doubt at this poi t ill try for sheep or goat in idaho.
