Er-e-is what are the the "super tags"?

POk3s · « **Reply #271 on:** Dec 24, 2013, 11:35 PM »

You'll have to look it up mac daddy. I'm too tired to even grab the link for you. Basically Wyoming is doing like other states and doing a raffle for a tag of your choice. I commend them for actually using their brain instead of just raising license costs. There's so many other ways to make money besides just raising tag prices. This is one of those where every sportsman is going to throw at least a little bit of money at and probably never draw but it will raise them a lot of revenue. I like it really.

Sounds and looks like you folks kicked butt on the Elk this year.

Maybe I'll draw a tag next year. I can only hope.

There is a link on the myhuntingforum to the game and fish website explaining all about the tags. Not bad for 10 bucks a ticket to choose one species, or 30 bucks to choose three species, but drawing one the odds might be high, but might be the same odds for drawing that special area you want to hunt.

What's everyone's opinion on the new "Super Tags"?

wouldn't but to bad to win but I would think the odds are "super high" for the "super tags"

What would you consider to be the areas you would use this tag for?

That would be a tough choice! Someone has to draw them though

POk3s · « **Reply #278 on:** Dec 26, 2013, 07:00 PM »

If would be a tough choice. I'm just not going to even think about it until my name is pulled

. I think you'd be foolish not to choose Mountain Goat. You at least have a chance in drawing moose, sheep, and whatever else. Mountain goat is like .5% and no points. Other than that it's a toss up.

WYOBRUM · « **Reply #279 on:** Dec 26, 2013, 09:24 PM »

Most people in Wyoming don't realize that there are already 25 governors licenses no more than 5 can be sheep and no more than 5 can be Moose and I can't remember about mountain goat anyhow they are given to non profits to sell at auction or raffle and I believe the non profit gets 10% of the take the rest goes to an account that is species specific for habitat research and the like. They are good for any open area There are also commissioners licenses each commissioner gets 7 of them to give away to nonprofits this year with incoming and outgoing commissioners there were 72 of those. they too are given too nonprofits except the nonprofits get to keep 100% of what they get from them, they sell for between 8,000.00 and 10,000.00 they however are good for antelope deer and elk you pick the species area and season. That is correct the Wyoming game and fish commission gave away 600,000.00 plus dollars to non profits in the form of these licenses the vast majority are sold too the highest bidder to hunt elk thru outfitters in the very best areas of the state they take the cream off the top of our big game heard each year.

Just so you know melody and I were in an accident to day and her Hyndai Sonata was totaled.. We were stopped at a stop light and a f250 ford truck could not get stopped on the ice and there is no back end left on the car. We are so lucky to be only sore and lucky that the other person had the same state farm insurance agent as us in Riverton and admitted to the police it was her fault. Poor Melody cried that her car of 7 years that she loved very much is gone.. Just be safe please

What to do on a warm windy day??? Fix the neighbor's frozen water lines in the crawl space.. Fun fun.

Sounds like a blast olefish, lol. Hope it went well. I am getting ready to go back to the drilling rig for 2weeks. I day dream about ice fishing for two weeks, lol

I just finished butchering my buffalo tonight. Two full days of Solid Work. But it is well worth the effort. Blessed to have a freezer full of wonderful wild bison meat.
The really neat part of this ordeal is, I met two fellow Ice Shanty members up in Jackson while buffalo hunting. And we all harvested our animals on the same morning to boot.
So, now it is time to get after some serious fishing.

Great deal I got mine last year with my bow at 17 yards after a four hour stalk. Meat is some of the best you'll ever have! I still have a bunch left. Mine they said was a six year old cow. Got 826 pounds of meat off her. Here is a pic of mine.
