2008 proposed permit levels

[Ridgerunner]

Got them in my hot hands anyone want to take a guess where permit numbers are going?

[Buckshot Bill]

So what are the numbers?

[Ridgerunner]

For those in the NE corner it looks like antlerless permits are going down by 50%, for the late mule deer tags looks like a 20% reduction pretty much across the board.

[Ridgerunner]

For elk the big bull tags are pretty consistent small changes except for Colockum where the modern firearm number is now down to 3.  I wonder what is causing that decrease?

Any rut hunt's for elk in the Teanaway? I think I know the answer.

What are the blues bull tag numbers?

[Ridgerunner]

Looks like a slight increase in the blues for bulls.   .  Also the Wenaha is looking at being split with 15 tags for each hunt, a Wenaha east and a Wenaha west area.

NICE

 Prepare to hear me whine again about not getting drawn. 

[Ridgerunner]

You will whine becuase your firing center tags have proposed to be reduced by a third.

I'd have to guess partially because of the louse infestation, makes it tough to survive winter's like this. Did you get these via the DFW update mailing list?

Thanks

I can't say I really want to get drawn this year and burn my points anyway (for deer).

[Skyvalhunter]

Bone you best just put in for points only then for deer.
