Did not see it either. And the Res/NonRes is not based on the tag but your status.

How'd you see it if you are a Resident I wonder?

 

[Chump]

Did it show as NR or R? I think it shows based on residency? Either way that was a huge miss for me...

I’ve seen two of those pop up. The Area 06 tag.

 

[dwalton]

Monday I saw an 033 deer, and Tuesday an 032 deer.

 

[Wiszard]

A unit 10 doe deer tag popped up last night- NR.

 

[BGnight]

These pop ups are making realize I don't need to take up archery to get a tag. Next year just gonna plan on hunting October rifle via FCFS if I don't draw. That way I can already be mentally and physically prepared.

 

[LIK2HNT]

My thoughts exactly. If I can pull off retiring at the end of the year I can just keep my truck and cargo trailer hooked up and ready to go!!
Just really need to know what units to are worth getting and which to avoid.

 

[Wiszard]

The difficult part is knowing or being prepared for WHAT UNIT tag comes up. Most of the time, the season will be starting within 10 days approx from when you get the tag off FCFS. It also has to do with how many points you currently have. I have 9 so I won't be burning them on a less than average tag....say a 10 tag that pops up.

 

[Wiszard]

NR 041, 042 up now deer.....

 

[Wiszard]

NR 60;s deer up now.....

 

[Researcher]

Another super busy day today. All tags gone in seconds.

 

[DESKPOP]

Seem to come in bunches....4-5 in a short span then hours of nothing

 

[BGnight]

Jeez I'd be stoked on any of those tags having zero points now.

 

[BGnight]

I've always wanted this tag being in Reno.

I saw quite a few 06 tags today too.

[trimtab473]

My buddy just sent me this. Too bad he’s not an archery hunter… Wonder if whoever got it realized it was archery not alw. May have burned some points!

 

[LIK2HNT]

Luckily I am in a waiting period for desert sheep. ??
With that said I still have not seen anything pop up when I am on. Given I only have an hour here, 30 minutes there. How much time in a day do you guys stare at the screen??

[lex]

I’ve seen a few pop up. None of these hunts I really wanted, I am looking for a late hunt. My problem is by the time I see the tag and identify what it is and decide to add it to my cart it’s gone. So the only way to get a tag is who ever is the fastest to add to cart then decide if you want it or take the 7 day hit and let it go back into the system?

I think so since you have people like me that will be happy to hunt anywhere

I almost clicked on that ewe tag.

Call me crazy but I have no desire to shoot a bighorn ewe

 

[mickeyelk]

Me neither, my ram wasn't all that good to eat.

 

[braaap]

Just got back from that hunt, wife had the tag. She killed here ewe yesterday. Haven’t tried any yet. Hopefully it’s tasty!

 

[DESKPOP]

This. No desire to drop bombs on moms

 

[ElmerFudd]

Hunting ewes is really a way to manage local populations. It seems like when local populations get high, the herds get pneumonia or something crashes it hard. I wouldn't pay a nonresident tag fee to hunt a ewe, but get why they have the ewe hunts.

My wife had the same tag. We had some last night. It was excellent!

We ate the tenderloins last night and they were delicious! Better than mule deer so far.

 

[Jgill19]

The ram I've eaten was not very good... Edible but I was dissapointed that I only had one package.

***wasn't

 

[mickeyelk]

My wife had the same tag. We had some last night. It was excellent!

How did she cook it? I have a little left over and will try anything to make it taste better?

 

[iowacity]

I cooked the back straps like steaks ( they were very small) in a hot pan to medium rare.

 

[mickeyelk]

Thanks

 

[Gollywomper]

How hard is it to pick up a decent tag on here? Will be moving to Nevada around the first of the year. That should make me eligible for a resident tag around June? If so hoping to pick up a tag around then? What are my odds of grabbing something worth while?

If you archery hunt there’s a decent chance. Rifle hunts are a crapshoot.

If you make fcfs your only strategy and ignore applying in the draw you will likely hunt less.

[iowacity]

If you work in front of a computer all day and can have the window up and are willing to check all night, you will get a FCFS tag. It’s about putting in the time. There were around 1K+ FCFS tags all together last year. That’s a lot of opportunities.

I plan to apply as well once I’m a resident. Yes I archery hunt. Is was just a thought as I will become a resident long after the draw next year.

Anyone see that last elk tag that popped up a bit ago. I wasn't at my puter and all I saw was a flash of an elk picture before it took me back to the home page. Ugh.....

I did click, but with the hesitation, too late. It was maybe 5 seconds. I only have 2 elk points, but I still have to work, not retired yet, plus we have a family vacation planned over Thanksgiving week.

Could always make it a family hunting/camping trip. ??

Thanksgiving happens every year and you can get a new job after the season is over. A lot more jobs than there are elk tags of the kind…

 

[ElmerFudd]

Sounds good. But really, the timing is bad for me this year, it would lock me out of a a FCFS desert ram tag (one I would make more sacrifices for) this year, and it would lock me out of NV elk for the waiting period. I might not have clicked in time anyway, bit the few second hesitation made that certain. I have drawn elk tags of this caliber but odds are I die before drawing a desert ram tag.
