How do other states work for a hunter to selected to hunt an area and draw a tag? I am asking to see if it is comparable to how Our state of Alabama is going about with the system of selecting hunters for the SOA hunts.

Some states out west have draw zones or units and otc units
Some units may be draw for certain seasons then otc for other seasons.
Some states even residents may never get a tag for certain species in certain units.
And some are “once in a lifetime “ tags. Or you’ll have to wait a certain number of years to apply.
Just depends on animal and demand vs supply of older males in the herd.
Tennessee has a good draw system.

Comparing Alabama to western and midwestern states is dumb. Alabama is not and never will be a destination state for trophy deer hunters. Modeling our licensing structure after theirs makes no sense and is just going to drive away OOS hunters. Agreed we have so many more hunters and so much less land. Last thing we need is to make hunting more exclusive. To that end, I'm thinking more and more that a trip out west once a year to kill an elk or muley would be more rewarding and cost effective than hunting here Alabama. There's a good plan out there for an OTC CO cow elk hunt for $1,000. Add a bit more for a bull elk and you're still around the cost to join a mediocre club or lease here.

[quote=crenshawco]To that end, I'm thinking more and more that a trip out west once a year to kill an elk or muley would be more rewarding and cost effective than hunting here Alabama. There's a good plan out there for an OTC CO cow elk hunt for $1,000. I've looked at some of the OTC tags and areas for cow elk. It's meat in the freezer, a nice trip, and no drama or stupid political money-grab bullchit with idiotic "baiting privilege license" fees or "define the area" crap or other mess. Plus, the Rockies are gorgeous. I think Colorado has some units with OTC cow elk tags. It would be nice to be able to do this in Kentucky for cow elk but they reduced the number of tags. Tourism people in eastern Kentucky along with some rich assholes who want to see and hunt more bull elk pressured the DNR to reduce the number of hunting tags. So now they have more elk than their management goals and can't thin them via hunting. A few more years like that and they'll have problems, just like with bears in Gatlinburg or New Jersey or Florida. Hunting politics are stupid.

Leave it to AL to try and figure this out when there are several western states that have perfected it decades ago! Based on Alabamas tendency to try and reinvent the wheel, they would adopt another state's successful system and make enough changes to it to screw it up

Hunting politics are stupid.
The truest statement you'll see on the interwebs this week. Two fields that politicians need to stay completely out of are Law Enforcement (other than putting laws on the books, which they usually end up screwing up anyhow) and Wildlife Management.
