I apologize for your confusion, that is not the point I was trying to prove.
What I was saying is, herd numbers are dropping. Success rates are remaining relatively the same. Technology is the reason for that.
I hope that makes more sense.
I'm sure you're right.
I mean it makes complete sense that they could "rig" the draw results in this day and age without anyone figuring it out or any whistle blowers coming forward.
For the most part herd numbers have dropped pretty drastically in the last 40 years, yet success rates have stayed the same.
Kinda proves the point that technology increasing has increased success rates doesn't it?
Ok, hopefully this doesn't just turn into a disaster but here goes....
The thread about the new Rangefinder that will drop points on OnX where you range to got me thinking, when is enough enough?
When are we going to have so much technology that it makes our efficacy so high that we lose...
Yep.
So now you don't even need to know how to read terrain and a map to plan a stalk, just let your rangefinder and your phone do it for you.
Where do we draw the line?
When they make bullets that will hit exactly where your rangefinder drops a pin will guys use that?
At some point...
The only difference is decades of Government indoctrination to make folks think there is something wrong with Weed but somehow Alcohol is ok.
Golf is a hobby not a sport.
So many generalizations here...but hey, if it makes you feel better about yourself go right ahead pal.
Fair enough. I did miss that.
I'm kinda wrong anyway because an argument could be made that the Elk were only on his farm because the Wolves had pushed them outta the mountains into "safety".
I'm an idiot. I'll go away now. Have a good weekend ya'll!
Yep. I got a depredation tag in Idaho a few years ago. The farmer told me that each bull living in his corn cause about $5k worth of damage a year.
So are elk criminals too?
Said it before, I'll say it again even thought it's unpopular. The changes that Idaho made to the Wolf Seasons/Regulations a few years ago were stupid and did nothing but put us in the cross hairs for more lawsuits.
We already had super liberal seasons & regulations before that. More seasons...
Lots of these non-profits are constantly selling the next "sky is falling" scenario to keep you engaged and donating. Rokslides favorite non-profit, BHA, is pretty good at this as well.
I just see, in my opinion, lots of "sky is falling" all over their page.
