[QUOTE="cabelasken, post: 2276897, member: 117774"] About 15 years ago, I attended a public meeting with the Idaho wildlife commission on the status of game animals, license availability, and the future of big game animals in the state. The last 30 minutes of the gathering was opened up to questions and answers. A few of the locals spoke up at the end critizing the amount of non-resident tags and the game take by non residents. The biologist from the state dept spoke up by saying non resident success rate was directly proportional to amount of time spent in the woods by non residents and their desire to hunt away from the roads. Just two years before, 4 of us from Calif drew tags in a premium unit and three of us filled tags with nice animals. All were taken more than 1/2 mile from any access road or trail. Prior to the trip, we spent hours looking over maps, planning for the hunt and that pre planning resulted in two of the bucks taken. I found my buck 2 miles away from where I intended to spend my hours hunting. None of us had ever hunted this unit before, but maps and intel from friends helped make the trip successful. [/QUOTE]
