Read page two "Green Sheet", 4th paragraph, on how this new funding will help hunting access.
That's sure nice of you biggame guys to fund landowners for waterfowl and pheasant hunting. And besides money... all it cost you was much worse draw odds for your biggame permits.
That should make you feel better about this proposal and finally willing to support it... right?

It just keeps getting better doesn't it...... :dunno: :bash: >:(

Maybe I am reading it wrong and according to many posts on here I might be. But the way I read it was that..... lets just use me for example I have 14 points for Elk they are going to put 14 points in each category that I apply for and only loose the points for the ones I get drawn for. sounds pretty good to me.
I do agree with I cannot trust what they will do with the money..
Curly:
Yes, Rosscrazy, they do apply your 14 points in each category. That is the problem. Now there will be tons of people with max points in the category for antlerless. Now the guys with few points won't have a snowballs chance in hell of drawing for the next few years, until all you guys with a ton of points get drawn and get out of the pool.
So, yeah, for you it is sweet........you'll easily be able to draw in every eligible category except quality. (now you'll have a bunch more guys in the pool for the quality permit whereas before there were guys that just applied for cow tags and didn't bother trying for those impossible to draw permits). What I'm saying is that it would be better to have you tell them what category you wanted your points to go.
I guess they counted on having a bunch of guys with a lot of points not complaining because they are practically going to be given permits for the easier to draw permits.

rosscrazyelk,
Yes it is a good deal for you and all who have many points like you do. That is why it's unfair.
