Not exactly DonK, Last year they sold out in 5 days and you could get through pretty easily any day after the first day. Our club was still taking a few hunters that week and we checked daily on the numbers left and had no problem getting through. Obviously people took last years sellout seriously but there HAD to be substantial increased demand.

It sounds like something will need to change...I am hearing that a lot of noise is being made in Springfield. One outfitter I know lost 45 of his 200 hunters. We've heard of another who will be bankrupted over this.

I'm glad all the hunters in our little club were dilligent and/or lucky. We only lost one hunter out of 44 and quite frankly he only called for about 20 minutes, left for work, and then called a bit Saturday night, gave up again and called Sunday morning and got shut out.
