There is a reason that 2200 OTC tags are sold each year and 3800 put in the draw for 438! Its a very special tag yet guys say it should be treated no different and hold no more value to them. Thats a joke!!
Again your opinion is getting in the way. What is the difference between a Ram in WMU 438 and a Ram in WMU 404. Other than geographical location and some genetics they are the same. They are both public property.
In the past hunters found the rams to be a little bigger, the location to hunt better and various other reasons. Too much hunting pressure caused ESRD to establish a draw in order to control the resource. A draw in order to distribute
animals in a fashion that allowed fair and equal access to the public.

Please explain why your OPINION is right and mine is a JOKE.
You cant, they are personal value judgments.

If you can, make your case for why the 438 draw is different without using,
opinion or personal values.
