Points systems leave alot of money on the table, but they are a ponzi scheme and no hunter should  be in favor of preference systems. They can only work correctly  if the demand remains stable. Not only are they seldom stable, they are never better, and they are never in favor of NR.

Idaho has the best draw system in the world. No need to change it now. Plenty of opportunity for OTC hunters both resident and non resident and a chance at some of the best draw hunts, both OIL and other, every year in the west…whats not to like?

I think most people, me included, want Idaho to stay away from a point system but more just to clean up how the current draw is done.  :twocents:

Compared to Washington, Idaho is doing things right. Lots of OTC opportunities, the draw is straight forward with none of this point crap. Last year I didn’t get an OTC tag until September after the season started, which was fine because I was holding off until the tail end. This year I didn’t get a tag on the 1st either… but I’ll pick one up between now and the start of season, people are always turning tags in.
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

Log in to your account in order to get "in line," and can't have a bunch of phones, tablets, computers getting a place or clogging the system.

Limit in person buys to one tag other than yourself, no buying for 5 or 10 others. Family with the same last name excluded from that limit.

Just those two should have a big impact.

Part 1. I'm good with the first part.
Part 2.  Must be present & one person gets one tag the same as it is for online folks.

Thanks for the discussion minus the snarky comments.  :tup: :tup:

Like said before Idaho doesn't care about any of our opinions.  For them their system works perfectly fine cause they sell out every year, so why would they change it.  And they have a set date for when tags go on sale, so you have a year to make plans to make it happen.  If you don't thats on you not the system!!

The system is ok but I would suspend in-person sales on 12/1 only. Everyone needs to go through the online waiting room that day. That would eliminate the in-person advantage over others attempting to buy tags.

So you’re saying the people who took the extra effort and took time off and drove over shouldn’t be aloud to buy because  why? Early bird gets the worm bud make the extra effort
I don’t mind people buying in person but I would suggest you can only buy for yourself (and your kids/spouse).  Photo ID required.

Those buying for multiple people really crush the system whether in person or online.

So glad I moved here 5 years ago!  :) 

No draw system.  I was able to draw and fill my moose tag in 3 years.  My wife drew hers the first year she applied.  She didn't get her moose, but in 2 years she can start applying again.

Don't change the system, just update the draw/purchase process and I think everyone would be happy.  :twocents:
