Southern A zone 3,111. That’s where the party’s at.

168 sounds right. It was a rough year to say the least. That’s less than a 6% success rate. Keep in mind this includes private land bucks. @ilovesprig how many bucks came off MCC?

Did you see they are going away from requiring a tag... but you'll have to pay a different fee to hunt hogs in 2024. I wonder what they are going to do for lifetime license holders... Ed af

 

[HATCHET1]

I did Eddie..I'm thinking they give us the lifetime stamp...kill um all !!!!

A-Zone has been high on the list! Might have to make it happen this year.

I am not shocked about d16 either. I'm betting the private land guys had a decent year as long as they had dedicated water.

 

[JakeSCH]

I always enjoy looking at the guys who said eff it and burn points...like 18 points for D14!!! Wow...6 points for A31.

 

[JakeSCH]

One of my favorite stats....more 4pt bucks taken with a G13 tag (3) than an A31 tag (2)

I've wondered that... Is that an instant call from the game wardens or what?

Did you draw a sheep tag last year? Or are you still rooting for yourself going into the draw this year. Haven’t heard of to many people realizing the marble/clipper reduction. It’s a hard hit to the little tags offered for desert BH sheep in the state especially since there is a lot more opportunity out in the desert then the state allows.

Is it just CA political BS or do they have a reason why there isn't more hunts?

A little bit if both or I should really say a lot of both!

I hope so good luck! Let me know if you draw. Any particular unit you’re going for? I knew a guy that his wife drew last year lived in Idaho, so it does happen.
