And that is only premium hunts like the 438 TS, Suffield Antlered elk, Goat, Buffalo etc. It stops no one from hunting as there are very few of these tags offered and thousands of OTC tags that are still cheap and way higher odds of getting drawn odds tags guys can draw every few years. We're Not suggesting every tag be $1000!!!! But there is definitely a spot on some tags for an increase and them coveted tags need it. And the fact is in this day and age there are just going to be stuff guys can't afford, myself included!!
Many families live paycheck to paycheck on 80 k per year bud. Do you have any formal schooling in econ or finance? Or kids for that matter with a stay at home wife? Or are you just another 22 year old with his GED making that kind of cake on the rigs? Finance everything right? You brought up payments.

You are naïve if you think specifying 'premium hunts' will not eventually have an effect on 'non premium' hunts. WTF does 'premium' hunt mean? Youre already conveying that 'your' hunts mean more than the guy going out for a mean doe in early November. You guys are ass backwards. It has nothing to do with resident draw issues and everything to do with non res and outfitter.
