I'm buying fewer just because it's much more inconvenient.

I want to see the look on the license dealer's face when you step up to the counter and announce you want 1000 tickets. Will that be cash or credit sir? :chuckle:

I'll be buying fewer but it's not because they're not selling them online. It's just because I don't want to spend the money on them, because I know I wouldn't win anyway. I'd rather spend the money on trail cameras.

None for me. Never have bought any. Thought about doing some this year but decided to do my stuff online again, so I won't get any.

I buy one of each.  Will be the same this year as in years past.  I've got a feeling there will be fewer bought just because it's not as convenient as buying them online like a lot of people buy all their licenses and tags.

In the past I would usually buy 2 every payday as soon as they started selling them, but now since no internet sales are allowed I havn't bought any.  Don't think I will this year at all. (east deer, and east elk)

I'll probably buy a couple when I put in for a couple special hunt permits. I'm surprised they don't do it online this year. They'll lose sales for sure. It's kind of like a political candidate not using social networking - big mistake.
