Haven’t seen anything posted here yet. Anyone know if there is truth to CPW getting rid of OTC for 2024 for the Meeker Units? Believe folks were saying it was due to last seasons winter kill.
If the rumor is true you can bet this is the nail in the coffin for otc… heck they have been chipping away at the otc units for years at least archery wise, so if they force likely more guys into less units get ready for some real rodeos…
Tried to get onto the BGSD committee myself but wasn’t an outfitter or associated with hunting fool… I would love to hear some inside scoop, I am hoping for otc for residents only or just make it all draw, will be interesting to see what they come up withI know people that are part of the BGSS Stakeholders group, CPW will
Do away with some OTC tags for herd management but will never get rid of it

Normally I’d agree but that’s actually how most folks found out about the restricted tags last year for meeker prior to the regs coming out. Sometimes information finds its way to FB first.You’ve got like a week and the brochure will be out, that’s gonna be a lot better than listening to Facebook gossip

Is this for residents or nr tags? Residents should have otc tag options but nr tags are long overdue to be restricted or require points to get the tag at a minimumI know people that are part of the BGSS Stakeholders group, CPW will

I saw specifically mentioned that there would be no 2nd or 3rd rifle OTC. It would all be a new draw tag for those seasons unless on private land.What seasons were mentioned?
There are more OTC units valid for OTC Antlered Rifle Season than OTC ES Archery Season

Nope. They just shortened each of the OtC rifle seasons to 5 days last year.I believe that’s how it was last year already,

So he’s saying that residents will still be able to have OTC for 2nd and 3rd, just not non-residents?An outfitter friend said that ODC tags for NR's would only be for private land. The same shortened seasons for the Meeker area would be the same.

Please do. Report back what you hear.Not sure. We were only talking NR's. I'll call and ask him.
Have not heard one way or the other. Just assume that at some point in the future the entire state will be draw, and there will not be any OTC units.Haven’t seen anything posted here yet.

Yeah the current OTC rifle tags for non residents isn’t sustainable. Hopefully we see some positive change for 2025.Makes total sense and I support that
