I hunted on the south side of the river last year in 410 during sept and this year I'm going to be on the north side in 621 and 622. Theres going to be one less bull by time time you get there. good luck, Bobby

Where do you find statistics like this? every internet search I try renders page after page of outfitters' websites and crap not-pertaining.

-never needed to plan like this back home, but I recently relocated, and don't know my way around the SW part of the state. I could REALLY use some good statistics and data

Page 23 of the 2005 Deer Elk Antelope regs, to be more exact. You can see how many applicants put in for how many tags issued (quota). Hunt 631-20 had 600 apps for 30 tags, or 1 in 20 odds. Hunt 632-20 had 349 apps for 10 tags, or 1 in 35 odds.

With these kind of odds, I just pretend I never put in. It will be a big surprise if I ever draw. Then I pretend I never paid for the drawing so it feels like I got a bonus check when I lose.

As good as I've gotten at that, I guess I could also pretend I have a nice 6x7 trophy on the wall and skip the whole thing.
