2020-2024 Big Game Season Structure Proposals Public Outreach and Involvement. Over the years, the Commission and staff have used a variety of methods to inform interested publics about BGSS and to gather input on key issues. These activities have included media outreach, public meetings, targeted stakeholder briefings, quantitative surveys, telephone town halls and focus groups. The breadth of outreach efforts has generally been driven by the scope of each planning process. With the high level of hunter satisfaction heard during the past two season structure processes, CPW proposes a moderate level of public involvement for 2020-2024 BGSS with a narrowly focused list of discussion topics. Under this approach, harvest survey data could be consulted without including a Big Game Attitudes survey. The number of in-person meetings could also be reduced from one per area, to one west slope and one east slope meeting, supplemented by telephone town halls and a public online event. Media outreach and targeted stakeholder meetings would continue to be utilized. Topics. Potential discussion topics that arose since the last season structure, amongst both staff and members of the public include:
The overlap and timing of the archery and muzzleloader deer and elk seasons.
Timing and length of pronghorn and moose seasons.
Converting over-the-counter (OTC) either-sex (ES) archery elk licenses to bull only licenses in some units of the state.
Youth hunting opportunities and participation.
Based on the proposed moderate level of public involvement, topics such as license allocation, preference points, and lion hunting should potentially be avoided. With a statewide mountain lion management plan on the horizon and new pay-after-you draw regulations in place, additional time is necessary to fully-evaluate the effects and outcomes of these efforts before additional changes are implemented. Bighorn sheep and mountain goat hunting have also traditionally not been addressed during this process. Completely limited elk units will continue to be handled through a citizen-initiated proposal process, concurrent with the BGSS process.

As the above posts mention, this OTC Archery tag provides security for harvest success?seems every hunter favors this value; unless they fill their value system by watching the failure of others. As we know, some men make their livelihoods from doing so and are congruent with their methodology by taking delight in the failure of others?I like to graciously think of them as cottonheads, but that's a tangent.
