Title: Late teanaway tags
Post by: rosscrazyelk on May 06, 2017, 07:51:17 AM: So why do you think they got rid of the late season tags for all the weapons? I did notice they opened it up earlier in the season. Think that's why? Was there pressure to change it?

A lot of private property hunting that time of year brings a lot of attention and a lot of controversy. I never understood why it was the only unit to offer late bull hunts. I sure as hell applied for them every year though!

Me too I had made connections if I ever drew. My buddy got a doozy a few years back with that tag
