You'd pop anything with 2 legs. I meant 4. lolI'd pop'im.
Regardless if it's a 240" buck or a dink fork, you still gotta get close.Great purchase. I'd be proud.....
I don't see a bow in the picture.....Regardless if it's a 240" buck or a dink fork, you still gotta get close.
Ya.....but it's pretty early in the season to kill something with a rifle. Is that an A zone buck? What other zones would be open this time of year for rifle....that produce a buck like that? Most rifle seasons are after velvet is gone from my experience. Any other info on the buck? Now that I look back at the pic, def doesn't look like a broadhead hole up near it's spine, does it? I guess I was just assuming.I don't see a bow in the picture.....
If it is a Govenor's tag buck, you can hunt up until the end of January, with whatever method you so desire. It's not like the Open Zone or the Golden Opportunity tags.Ya.....but it's pretty early in the season to kill something with a rifle. Is that an A zone buck?

So, he can hunt anywhere, anytime, with whatever weapon he wants? He can hunt with a rifle in an archery only zone?If it is a Govenor's tag buck, you can hunt up until the end of January, with whatever method you so desire. It's not like the Open Zone or the Golden Opportunity tags.
Absolutely. Get your boots on the ground and get after it.Regardless if it's a 240" buck or a dink fork, you still gotta get close.
That tag is a crock of crap.... it's all about money and and nothing about the actual hunt. Go pay for a high fence ranch and leave it at that.So, he can hunt anywhere, anytime, with whatever weapon he wants? He can hunt with a rifle in an archery only zone?
Did the pharmacy screw up and not fill your prescriptions today?

Ya...everyone has their own views on this subject. I'll never have the $$ to buy a tag like that so it doesn't bother me that there is a Gov tag. Now, if there were 5 of these tags auctioned and they squandered ALL of the money, I'd dislike it. II am sure they squander SOME of the money on the 1 tag auctioned so it is what it is. Gov't BS....Go hunt and be proud of what you accomplish. That is not hunting!
My friend bought the State tag which you can hunt any open zone with that weapon, he bought that tag for around $8,000 , which was a bargain.Ya...everyone has their own views on this subject.

Tags like that and paying a trespass fee should be stopped. All it does is take away from the real hunters out there that put in the work and many miles trying to make it happen. But that person has bragging rights now they paid for it even though the boots are new.Ya...everyone has their own views on this subject.

You are correct about one thing. It is partly about the money...however, when these tags are auctioned off... the funds generated are supposed to be used in habitat restoration, guzzlers, conservation...I could go on. Now we can all certainly argue about just how well (or poorly) these funds may have been utilized, but the next big buck you harvest may be the result of a new guzzler in the area, sagebrush replanting after a fire, old fence removal...etc. Again, it is partly about the money...but it could also be a part of YOUR next hunt! You might want to look into the Mule Deer or Rocky Mountain Elk Foundations. They raise a spend a TON of money towards the betterment of habitat and wildlife. Auction tags, raffle tags and such are just one way they raise funds.That tag is a crock of crap.... it's all about money and and nothing about the actual hunt. Go pay for a high fence ranch and leave it at that.
