How many Michiganders putting in for Elk and Bear Tags

[MagMan]

I'm right on the line but have more private land in Baldwin.

I can remember when Baldwin wasn't even a bear unit. Back when bear tags where still otc

I apply every year plus a couple entries into the MI Hunt. By the time I win, I will need LR rifle just to get close to an animal. Not likely due to environment. But like a lottery, can win if you don't play.

BTW you can apply for KY elk non resident.

You don't need any points to draw a bear tag in Michigan in the UP. There are units that you can draw tags every year for the third hunt. I draw every couple years in Gwinn. I drew a Bull Elk tag in 1991. Had to wait 10 years before putting in again for a bull tag. I've got something like 22 chances now and hope to draw another Bull tag and my last.

It use to Be that you could only draw 1 Bull tag in a life time. I guess the money is more important to the Department of Unnatural Resources

No, it use to be that you had to wait 10 years if you drew one. Now it's only one in a lifetime. I drew mine in 91 and had to wait 10 years to put in for another bull tag. I can get another but it'll be my last.
