Threads titled “Sawtooth _____” don’t help. Neither does IDFG blasting press releases about it every month or so. My buddy hunted 7 days last year and never heard/saw an elk. Go get em tiger!!

My buddy hunted 7 days last year and never heard/saw an elk. Go get em tiger!!What people apparently don’t understand is it’s a capped unit for reasons. One is low elk numbers, other is low elk numbers for proximity to Idaho’s population base. Nether is quality. But boy is it a rush to get those tags, tags by the way they raise the cap on this year
So I was one of the lucky few who was able to buy an A tag this morning...however, my hunting partner was 10 seconds behind me and was SOL. I'm really bummed right now because we had spent several hours planning and scouting with OnX and Google Earth. I felt like we had a solid, fun game plan, but now it's all up in the air. Anyone else get the Sawtooth tag?
I and a lot of others wanted to see it go to draw for many reasons, oh well. You can getcha a bull. Get a wood tag or two.If you hear woofs bail, run, drive 20 miles in the opposite direction!!Plan 24 spots to hunt and move if you don’t get into em within 5 hours at a given spot. After your hunt email IDFG and suggest that it goes to draw
Personally?1. What 50+ year old NR has a snowball’s chance in hell of acquiring a tag within 3.5 seconds?1a. This demand is at least 84% due to the fact that IDFG makes mention of this hunt once a month in blast emails or posts on their website2. It would level the playing field3. It would take 4-5 thousand applicants out of the current controlled hunt pool...because they’d be applying for Sawtooth A/B
