Of course this is just for fun, but nonresidents use 2 arguments. 1. We hunt federal land so we should have the same opportunities. 2. We pay more so you residents are lucky we subsidize your hunting. This isn’t directed at any specific state but let’s do YOUR state came out with a new proposal. “No non-residents in resident only units, but residents have to make up the difference in revenue lost. All NR would be in OTC units.” Let’s say a resident unit is every unit except the top 10-% of trophy units. So it would look like…
Top 10% units draw only
40-90% top units resident onlu
0-30% NR Otc
So, how much would you be willing to pay for a RESIDENT tag knowing your opportunity would increase, the animal age class would increase, and the number of hunters would decrease dramatically.
I’m always curious what residents are actually willing to do to make up the difference. Of course this isn’t scientific, just more to get an idea for one’s appetite to part with his hard earned money.
