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 submitted all my permit apps a few minutes ago so I feel better now. At least until I get (11) "Not Selected's".
I know huh...I got the multi season deer, which I didn't really want it in the first place. I wanted the elk, but got the great "Not Selected" news. Boo!

Pathfinder it just sucks we have to put out so much money to hunt and have that Father sun time together but in the end it will come back many times over with the memorys anyway that's what I try to explain to my wife don't know if it works but were still hunting.
Yup. Also, every time I read an Eastman's article about some son who is a doctor or a lawyer and paid for the "trip of a lifetime" to pay dad back for all the times "he took me hunting when I was a kid", that gives me a little extra incentive to fork out the cash for his tags. Now I just have to get the kid into law school.... ;)

Imagine how much it would be if the money had to be fronted for the permits. :chuckle:
At the risk of having several of you looking for a rope!!
I'm all in favor of up front for tags!! Eliminate the points. To any of you who draw your going to have to come up with the funds so whats the difference if they have it now or latter. They would refund everything but the cost of the permit draw fees.
Would make everyone review what they want to hunt instead of just blanket apps.
But then I also have played that way when you had to upfront all the Moose,Goat and sheep tags. :hello:

No ropes from me, I remember when you had to front the money for OIL tags and my odds were MUCH better then.

Like I have heard!! "You pay your money and you take your chances!!!"
Just like playing the Lotto it only takes one ticket to win! Or so I have been told.

This state is turning into an absolute joke with all this nonsense. Sure do miss the good ol' days. >:(
Sit back and watch! Wait until they throw the coveted Wolf tag into the mix. You will have people working street corners to come up with the money for it!! :chuckle:
Sorry I didn't mean to push this off the topic. I'm still struggling with giving them any money this year.
Figure I will be ahead floating.

Getting expensive these days!! Come on Peaches Ridge tag!!
I think my youngest son is in for a shock, when he's no longer a poor, broke college student and has to buy his own permits! Ouch!

He said after all the cost of fishing and boat license he couldnt afford it. Retired and limited income.
Next year Ill buy them for him. after all he paid for me growing up. (wish he would of said something)
I wish there was some discount for older people in this state. I mean how much of a threat are they anyway. Dad cant walk more then a few hundred yards from his truck for fear of his back going out. Or gout in his legs. apps aint bad but the total cost is nuts for people like him. So much for growing the sport when the grandkids cant enjoy poppa in camp. or spend time on a stand with the ole grey bearded wealth of knowledge.

I threw $250 down the tube yesterdayI'm in for just shy of $500.00 for my son and I and we still need to buy federal duck stamps later in the year.
As far as the oil tags paying up front, I do miss that. It probably kept a ton of people out of the system.
