Ya, I think a lot of people took me the wrong way on here or should I say, way too serious.... I wasnt even looking for a 20 dollar donation...I was more thinking a buck... A  generous offer Jack BTW. Mainly, I brought it up, since there are usually massive threads on here on how so many would do anything to kill the big bad wolf, several of which post that SSS is ok (which I dont agree with). So, my theory was that if they feel that way, why not donate a buck, .50 cents, two bucks, etc to someone who is going down there anyway. As ive said, the worst they can say is no!

And no, I wouldnt need gas, food supplies, donations  :chuckle: etc...Im sure my brothers and I, with pops, wont have a problem with all that, we got tons of elk to eat, by then a few bears probably etc.... ;)

Thanks for all who voted and put in their two cents! I appreciate it!

Cheers!
what does sss mean :dunno: cause i dont know
my grandpa always said "if it aint broke dont fix it"

SSS=Shoot Shovel Shut up.
Poach in other words.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

I didn't see an option that I'd contribute to:  Reimbursement for a FILLED Wolf Tag.
If the tag was paid for by other people up front (a free tag), at least in my case or most people I know there would be less motivation to fill it; as opposed to a tag I actually had to buy.  Now, if I bought a tag myself and was told that should I fill it, that I would be reimbursed...I'd probably hunt wolves a bit more seriously.  (Or any animal come to think of it)  But if no wolf, then have to eat the tag and the cost.  For the sponsors?, they don't pay unless a wolf hits the dirt.  So if wolf dies, then sponsors? get a wolf removed from elk killing and the hunter gets paid.  Essentially instead of paying for hunting (success unknown--someone's recreation) you would pay for killing (a service provided).

I said no as well. If you can't afford the hunt then don't go. There are a lot of hunts I would like to do but are not in my budget. So therefore I don't go on them.

Bringing up an old topic

The out of state for Idaho just got cheaper.  31.75 for the tag and $154.75 for the license.

I wouldn't donate no matter how well you sugar coat the idea, you would get bored with the list of things id like to do that I dont want to fork over the cash for or can't afford.  Spent over 600 this year putting my wife, daughter, and I in for everything we were eligible for in Wa,  (not selected) all across the board, and another 200 for me in Oregon with the same results.  Worked hard for every dollar spent, but sometimes you have to pay to play the game.
When you see the third, thin the herd.
Right now I'm somewhere picking up sheds.
