Moose draw Round 2

I am reading what fish hog said about groups of 2 to 5 hunters could never get a tag in the old draw. If every group of 2 to 5 hunters got a tag guaranteed and in some zones it was that way if you had the required group size they would be given out probably. Five times or more tags than they did give out which would have had a very bad effect on the Moose herd that said I think the old system was there to promote group hunting. More hunters could hunt and the rules were right in front of us all. I hunt in a larger group And this new system is no better or worse for us. Most of the complaints about the old system, I would bet came from hunters in the lower Ontario zones. The ones complaining probably made up a very small percentage of the overall hunters. They made more noise. In 2019 five hunters in a group got a bull tag in 15 areas. 2+ hunters got a bull tag in 1a,1c,1d,2,16a,18a,18b Two hunters in a group got a cow tag in 15 zones. Up toFive hunters got a cow tag in 25 zones.

Your right, it depends on the zone. My camp is in area 42. I'd like to moose hunt there someday. Sure I could go up to those very far away remote zones. I just choose not to go that far. If the new system is no worse for large groups, then I guess there is no problem. And I might someday get a tag. I don't choose to hunt in very large groups. Done it before, and its not my thing. The old system was very biased towards those groups.
