[QUOTE="JakeC, post: 2828283, member: 115819"] Well said. Utah is a Gigantic state. I mean, all western states are but the number of completely independent ecosystems and biomes is unreal here so the idea that horrific loss in two counties (that were overpopulated) gets to shame and dictate the ethics of hunters hundreds of miles away is absurd. While the state can be dysfunctional and crooked I know the DNR is trying to do the right thing and has the science to do so. What the state does to get more slices out of one pizza is another thing, but I feel okay about hunting. Sadly though my stance didn't get me anywhere. Unsuccessful, unsuccessful, and unsuccessful. That's ok I really wanted to focus on general archery elk this year and I shot a fabulous buck last year. I still have plenty to learn before I go after a LE elk that could likely be once-in-a-lifetime with the 5 year wait and probable need to move away as my parents age in another state. With wht I've learned about how things are on the ground during LE I'm honestly dreading it a little bit. Even if I could afford it I'm never going to be the guy with 30 trail cams with a posse of of guys being my hunt butlers. [/QUOTE]
