The fact is it will increase odds to show who is serious. Hunting is becoming and is almost already a rich man’s sport. Unfortunate but true. The odds will be much better I believe

Not many states let you apply with out buying a license
jrebel:
Being we are a neighboring state…..buy your license and a bear tag.  If you don’t get drawn for deer or elk….go bear hunting.  Win win in my opinion.

very few states left that dont require you to buy a license before applying, had to in ID to apply in controlled hunts. Id be for them fronting the tag fee like they do on OIL tags

Enemy ? How is this bad? Last system was complete garbage ! Unfair to a huge majority of people

it wasn’t perfect. Not saying that. How was it unfair? Everyone had the same chance. I could hunt Idaho every year and now I can’t. That doesn’t seem fair to me.

lets see it was done in the the middle of most peoples work week and mid morning to mid day. Not everyone has the luxury of sitting on there phone or computer trying to get a tag.People lining up and buy tons of tags for people which is complete garbage. I heard of outfitters buying dozens at a time. The whole random online placement system is garbage. I dont know how many people got booted after waiting. The whole thing was a joke and glad its a draw. It makes it fair across the board. From what I have gathered nothing has changed after the draw with returned tags and return tag sales
