LE Antler Quality Vs. Opportunity ► ► Some have commented that antler quality on our limited entry units has declined ► ► In the statewide plan we manage for antler quality on some units (high harvest age objective) and opportunity on some units (low harvest age objective) ► ► The units managed for opportunity are less likely to produce book heads, but you can still harvest a nice bull on those units
18
LE Antler Quality Vs. Opportunity ► ► Even though we have increased opportunity on some units, we are still the leading state for elk that go into the record books. Between 2007-2010 Utah led the west with 29 entries of typical elk into B&C followed by Arizona 23 and Montana 22 In the 2009-2010 reporting period Utah led with 13 entries of typical elk into B&C followed by Montana 9, Arizona 6, Colorado 6 and Wyoming 5
