It's been at least a few years since I've been stopped in the field for a license check, but I've been through a couple large checkstops on major highways in that same time. I wonder if this is a change in their strategy, or maybe because of budget cuts?

This year I've seen more of a presence in the field than ever before. This is in the Hinton area. They actually set up the mechanical deer north of Hinton as well!!
Sounds like they cut down on hunter numbers ( at least the ''one gun'' hunters) as a fella I know seen their batch of guns they seized for that day.
