Knew it was going to be capped eventually, glad they didn't cancel it. ID seemed packed this September with NR, no way I'll spend $900 next year to archery elk hunt in an area as crowded as WA.
Really disappointed to see they are doing away with the youth NR program, was hoping to take advantage of that as my kids got older.
Did they kill the youth program? I hadn't heard that.
I got the notice about DAV tags being capped. I think ID did this hoping that other states would follow suit, but no one did (game departments too greedy I guess) so the program got overused. Too bad. If Montana, Wyoming, Colorado did it too it would have spread the Vet's out.
Hope to make the cut next year... it's gonna be bum-rush for those of us who use the program. I wonder how they're going to control it?
