Idaho has had the same amount of tags and hunting pressure for the last several years. Tags sales dropped off when the elk populations dropped due to wolves, things are slowly rebounding.

Shame as used to be an enjoyable experience hunting there without a ton of out of state pressure. I see Montana and Colorado , WY, E Oregon are experiencing the same with all the hunting shows and hunting related social media . Pimping out these states.I imagine it will soon go to draw only soon. I guess enjoy while you can.Same amount of pressure the technology has just gotten alot better.
