I drew one tag out of six for the year. The second Mule Deer hunt in 31. How did the draw treat everyone else this year?

I got drawn for archery deer and rifle cow elk both tags are in unit 34.

Didn't get drawn for antelope or off-range oryx.

Nobody was expecting results this early. My wife and I got skunked on elk, but I will have a deer tag this year.

Good luck to you all.

I drew muzzleloader deer. Struck out on elk, oryx, and pronghorn.

Sorry Man.

Like ‘elks said, I must be cursed.

Bighorn, ibex, antelope and oryx were no big surprise. No deer or elk was surprising given my/our choices. Someday I’ll get a barbary tag.

The real shocker was the 0/15 for the family. Be interesting to see the data when it’s released.

We break records every year on number of applications. So much for hunter numbers being on a decline.

My youngest brother drew Mule deer, elk, and Oryx tags - not sure what unit(s), I'll have to ask.
I told him If he took an Oryx, I'd store the meat for him. laugh
