The state legislature would have to change our banking/finance laws in order for your hope of paying up front ever to happen. It is not a g&F issue. I also doubt G&F has any desire to do anything that will possibly reduce the number of people that apply for hunts. They have salaries to pay and bills to pay and at $13 a pop it would definitely affect their bottom line. They make way more money off of application fees than tag fees. I also agree with what has been said above. The old way was easier. Why can't we log in once and then select all the hunts we want all at once? Too much repetition IMO.

just curious but did you have your blind cable locked up? I lock my blind up when I leave it out but it would not be too difficult to get around the lock. Have not had a blind stolen but I have had some cameras taken. I look forward to the day when we are able to start getting pics or the perps.

Sorry, but I have been away for a while. Thanks for all the replies and I gave him all the messages and I believe he has made a few contacts.

I have a friend who contacted me and asked If I know of anyone who wants to sell a 7mm mag rifle. Not sure of make. If you have one for sale please let me know and I will get him in contact with you. He lives around 35th ave and happy valley rd. Text me John 623-680-4458

sounds like fun but many of those birds I have never even witnessed before. Wouldn't even know where to begin to look.

I hope this does not come down to a vote where 500 people support one thing and 50 support another and that is how they choose what method to follow. This is not a ballot issue but a chance for people to offer suggestions and bring up concerns. I hope the committee takes ALL suggestions under consideration and selects the best one based on sustainability, least impact on hunters/fishermen and meets the monetary goal that has been suggested. The best decisions are not always the most popular. I am also concerned about creating another form of bureaucracy. What percentage of the money is going to go to hiring more staff that includes wages, matching funds, insurance, retirement and a new 3/4 ton 4X4 PU? Has anybody noticed any difference in curbing ATV/UTV abuse since we had to start buying the $25 stamp 12 or so years ago? I haven't. I do see colorful brochures and pictures on the website but that is about it. If this is the same kind of thing we are looking at for educating the public then I want no part of it and I would just as soon as sell a few tags to rich folks and let them pay for it.

How much is the yearly service fee?

A Fly in spot n stalk archery bear hunt and a lake (with no mosquitos) all to our selves to fish afterwards. An Alaska archery moose hunt sounds pretty cool too but I think I would rather count coup on him instead.

Ed, Maybe you can pick-up that tent since you are coming down the hill for the ball game? I'm not very far out of the way.

Congratulations! I think that might be better than drawing in the regular draw. The odds have to be crazy that you would be next in line. I hope you make the most of it and have a great time. Look forward to seeing some pics.

I have the same machine and same year. Got it for fathers day back in 01. Spent all day yesterday on it up north. Has never let me down and all I have ever done is basic maintenance. Good buy

I mean absolutely no disrespect to anyone but I almost think it is comical when guys say they are going to turn in tag because a down year. Especially if they are not in the max point pool. Since when did all these people become super trophy hunters? I am 55 and been hunting since I was 14 and in all that time I have known one person who is truly a trophy hunter. This person passes shots with a bow from a blind at tom turkeys if spurs are not long enough. And believe me, he looks them over real good with binos and he has it all on film. Anyone who would pass a 198 deer because it is not 200 is only fooling themselves and I say they really don't like to hunt much. 99% of all hunters could not tell the difference between the two in the field anyway. John Mclendon used to do a guess the score on an elk rack at the bow hunter happening. He told me you would not believe what most people guessed and it was so much higher than the actual score. The bull was a beautiful 315 ish and most people were guessing in the 350 + range. Your friend needs to hunt because you never know what tomorrow will bring and life is too short. Just hunt!
