I'd like to see the hunting stay exactly as it is now. Hunting up there and the amount and quality of bulls hasn't changed in about 8 years or so.

Yeah, tags are hard to draw but even as it is now, you still run into a ton of tagholders while chasing big bulls.

The herd is stable and has been for a few years now so it should be left alone. :twocents:

Exactly. Why is it that every time we get something good going someone wants to come in and change it.

I just want to get my muzzy tag over there this year with 16 points and never look back. I know the blues are the premier elk hunting area in the state but waiting for this special permit has been more of a pain in my ass than anything. It stops me from my annual elk camp on the west side and forces me to hunt spikes on the east side which blows.  I know you all are thinking quit complaining and don't put in for it then, I'm just saying waiting all these years may or may not be worth it. I know the quality of the bulls over there and I'm in it for the long haul until I draw, but after that there will be 1 less muzzy applicant for the blues.  I will always put in for spring bear over there it is the most beautiful place in our state.  I say leave it the way it is, you can't beat that tag if you every draw it.
“In common with”..... not so much!!
