I really appreciate your honesty, that's absolutely what I need. Don't be afraid to hurt my feelings. This is really different than how things work here in PA and just when I think I have it figured out......I realize that I don't. I really want to avoid getting us into a poor DIY hunt.

I'm the group leader and I am aware that we can still change our apps. Yes, we applied with PP.

I thought I had done my homework. I was talking with a guy from WY on another forum. He suggested 38, then 34,35 & 36. I found this forum as I was looking for State Land maps to start planning the area in those that we were going to hunt.

Any suggestions as to area I should change to would be a great help ? So we need to stay out of the S.E. .......88-89-93 ??

We're not looking for monster Antelope, being our first time at this, I'd go with odds of getting a shot and the experience of a DIY hunt over anything else.

Thank you very much for your input.
Dave
