They fill the quota Friday - are you out 6k?Or is it only 2 active hunters at a time, then they call you once it's your turn?You can’t get a tag unless the quota isn’t met. As the proposals are written there is no chance of yu getting a tag and not being allowed to hunt 2 active tags at a time. Once they tag out if there is still quota then they will move down the list one at a time This for hunt areas 1-6 (only ones nonres can apply for) if I read right

Quote from: Oh Mah on March 28, 2018, 08:05:21 PMI think a non res tag in Alaska for grizzly is only 1k.I realize you have to hire a guide but 6k does seem high. I was reading about this hunt somewhere yesterday. The AK grizzly hunt was brought up and it was said that an "average" guided grizzly hunt runs around $20k. I can't verify that, but that's what I read.

Thats what i was thinking around 20k maybe a little less but not much when all is said and done.Reason for the cost is no different in my OP. than anything else that is required.When rules like non res need to be guided the price can will and does skyrocket. :twocents:These grizzly hunts in WY. will fetch a premium whether they have to have a guide or not.
At that rate... you can save up for a couple years and just go to Alaska. Was just looking online and there are quite a few good looking outfitters, one in denali with really good reviews, that offer spring grizzly/brown bear hunts for $10,000 with a $2,000-$2,500 trophy fee. If its $1,000 for a tag then you are looking at $13,000-$13,500 not including getting up there but that's not bad for a true giant Alaskan grizzly. Imo, and this is just my opinion, I will save up my money and put it toward the Alaskan hunt with a guide.
