Idaho Non-Res draw results

[fishngamereaper]

One thing we'll never know is how many people would of wanted tags this year even with the old system.
The pool of people wanting to hunt Idaho has been growing every year.
And with Montana's tag reduction announcement...
I'm guessing with or without the new system the ability to get a tag would of been harder than last year.

And is there a "bad" tag in Idaho...

1st time I haven’t bought a tag since ‘99.   Many of those years I had two.

I’m not competing for a sh*tty general Idaho tag   There’s other stuff to do.

I completely agree with this statement, people need to remember at the end of the day it’s just a general tag. It comes down to what you make of it, but there are hunts in other states out west with bigger bucks and bulls and more of them

The real beauty of hunting Idaho has been the controlled hunts. Not using a point system and chances for nonresident were really good and great when compared to Washington system. Not sure if that will be the case still.

100% especially going in blind! There is plenty of tags guys pulled that will come for a week and not see or hear an elk or only see a handful of deer and nothing worth notching a tag on… even some of the “good ones”

Give some people some years and donating $204 every year and nothing to show for it and people will say no thanks. Hell lots dont apply in NV due to the $184 non refundable fee yet in NV people get bonus points and you will draw a tag someday. Idaho is nothing no points to guarantee you tag in the future. Id be willing to bet that a huge % of people applying for elk and deer tags were in the southern areas of ID. Most dont or will not apply or go back to the selway, lolo and middle fork if they do draw once.
