I'm not convinced things are going down hill other than natural population cycles. I know I see a hell of a lot more sheep while sheep hunting than I do elk while elk hunting ( in the 400's ). I Think outfitters would like to see less resident competition on the hill so I don't think they would want to see 5 more years of no draw. I read the the report that you linked and in my simple mind his suggestions seem like they deserve some thought and debate. Lastly I think Dr. Boyce is a honourable professional who bases his conclusions on what he sees as the facts and the well being of our wild life not the financial well being of the outfitters.
