2021 governors tag
« on: February 13, 2021, 09:00:05 PM »
48k at the hunt expo, and 3 deer went for 75k. Does anyone know either of those tag holders? They could definitely break the state record if they play their cards right  :tup:

I thought 3deer went for $70,000.

Crazy money being spent this year, sheep, mule deer and 3deer all set records.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

West elk is up next. Should be interesting to see what it goes for.

I hear a guy from California bought the mule deer tag.
Can’t confirm or deny that.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

The live auctions have been crazy this year lots of big money being spent. Sound like the Mossback boys bought the mule deer tag for Washington for someone.

I don’t know who got the mule deer tag but you are spot on with the crazy money being spent.

West elk is up next and I’m guessing it will set a record as well.

Here is the link to Westside elk auction.

https://www.onlinehuntingauctions.com/item.aspx?i=39794352

You can enter your max bid now or wait until March 13th and place a bid then.

He probably could have done four or five trophy mule deer hunts in Canada for that money. Hope he makes it worth it.

I dont get spending that kind of dough here on a mule deer tag especially for an out of stater.  I'd go to the Jicarilla 2-3 times for that price and shoot deer bigger than what he'd kill up here.

I totally agree with you but you need to look at it from his point of view.  He probably already hunts Jicarilla regularly with the funds that he has.  He probably has more money than he will ever spend in his lifetime.  He probably has some guide, outfitter, or landowner showing him a picture of a massive buck on private land or in some deep dark hole in National Forest during the rut and for a small finders fee $$$$$$$$$ they will take him to it next year during the rut.  Way out of my price range and my thought process but then again, I don't have more money than I know what to do with either.  :twocents:

Most of the time these tags are a tax write off also since they’re donated to conservation groups. It’s inner circle back scratching for the wealthy.
