Well that's depressing news for all those who will find out tomorrow if they drew G or not in 2023.

Wow, 10,000 goat tags cut.

At least they have a department that manages big game.

They cut all doe tags and 75% of any antelope tags in the area I put in for. It sucks for sure but I was glad to see a game department that takes swift action. I guess I will just use my refunded money to pay for my Oregon elk tag (part of the tag anyway).

We have been enjoying seeing friends and hunting wyoming every 2 years for deer. I feel we won’t be back for a few years more at least. Hopefully they get some good weather years coming up.

The takeaway I have from this event is to wait till the last week to put in my tags. I got mine in early this year and lost the $30 for the application fee for my doe tags. I am fine with them cutting all doe tags in my area and they will refund the tag price but not the application fee.

A game department that actually manages and knows what's going on?! What a crazy thought!
