There's quite a few nonresidents applying for the desert sheep tag and the tule tag. I believe there is a ton of people that have moved out of this state and still apply for deer, but I don't see the crowd getting any bigger though...

Won't argue with you about the tile elk or sheep. Or that people that moved elsewhere and still apply.Quote:

If a hunter right now wanted to start putting in for a elk or sheep tag. They could plan on waiting 15 years for an elk tag and $2268 in liscences every year just to buy a point, this is not counting buying an application each year for the preference point. 30+ years and $4536 in liscences for a sheep tag, not includig applications.
If somebody really wants a california desert bighorn or tule they will probably apply but for someone wanting to go on a nonresident hunt for elk or deer coming from the Midwest or east coast isn't going to look @ California DIY.
Just found this forum and have already learned so much. Thank you all for sharing.
