It should be we give way more tags and cheaper ones then almost every other western state. If you want to complain about being limited look at New Mexico's non resident allocations

Clearly anti-bowhunting! I read thru several pages of meeting minutes....limiting non-residents was high on the priority list.

They open up increased Bear Tags with CAPS in these areas at reduced rates, yet don't encourage additional population control of predators like Coyotes and Mt. Lions. CO has a great resource, but its run by Left-Wing idiots who mandate based on Disney Movies.

To apply you must first buy a qualifying license, Small Game is $82 and a $10 Habitat Stamp. $9 per species you apply for (except $100 for sheep, moose and goat). They keep all the money if you're unsuccessful.

Colorado got huge push back two years ago when they reduced the price to apply from over $100 to like 25 a species. Too many people were applying, which blew up point creep for 2018.

This really bites. Here is the real question, how many licenses will be in the draw compared to how many licenses were purchased last year OTC, per GMU. 50% reduction, 75% reduction? What is going to be the qty of draw licenses available? Will OTC Archery bear now be Archery draw only too? This really bites!

Originally posted by Traildust View PostI'm talking about Public and Private. Tons of Texas residents looking for hunting land. Residents should have priority over non-residents.
Residents already get 5 tags each over the counter the ones looking just don’t want to pay what it takes to hunt the area they want. Still plenty of cheaper areas. A draw doesn’t make that land available to them just might keep someone else off of it.
