If I didn't already have a bunch of money invested in points I wouldn't even be buying a license here.

Hunting is an expensive sport and license fees are fairly minimal in the long run, but all they do is take take take, and keep expecting more. Last year I told myself I wasn't going to support them anymore but I can't get myself to do it with the points I've got built up.

I purchased more this year then I ever have. In the past I only purchase deer/elk combo and all the special permit hunts. This year I added in moose, goat, sheep, etc. I spent close to $400 for myself and my kid, which included a Discover Pass. I got drawn for a multi season deer tag. I have not decided if I am going to purchase it yet, but that will be another $190.

I submitted all my permit apps a few minutes ago so I feel better now. At least until I get (11) "Not Selected's".

I'm in for $267, just me.  Freshwater fishing salmon steelhead endorsement deer elk bear cougar turkey tag small game Discover Pass and seven special permit apps.  I did $311 a couple of years ago, but I dropped the permits I have no reasonable chance to draw in a lifetime (moose, sheep, goat; I've killed them out of state already).   
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.
