How to end NR Wyoming wilderness ban?

[johnnycake]

First we need to get rid of attorneys

You know what's amazing? You AREN'T required to hire an attorney to write a contract, represent yourself in court, or write your will.

There is an entire Newberg podcast on understanding why Wyoming can do whatever they want. Non-residents are not stakeholders of the states wildlife trust.

The North American model never had anything to do with non-resident hunting. That was not the intent. It has everything to do with protecting wildlife as a trust for residents of that state.

You are correct NR are not stakeholders. I wasn't disagree with you...NR are just the funding mechanism.
WY can do whatever they want but sooner or later a R may have to pay $250 for an elk tag...which will never happen...

You can't limit NR opportunity/dollars, keep R license prices the same and have funding to protect wildlife as a trust for the state.

Man, how many Wyoming residents would pay $250 for tags to not deal with NR? Pretty sure all of them would and I wouldn't blame them. Don't give them any ideas .

Have you spent any time in WY other than hunting know anybody there?....any talk of raising R tags prices they come unglued. $250 would only be an approx 5x increase.

Got buddy there that qualifies for the pioneer/heritage program. He pays $35, I pay $800/2k same tag. He has no problem with NR hunters..He understands funding mechanisms.

Only time I've spent there has been hunting. They're getting a bargain. I paid $50 for a resident elk tag a few years ago and had to pay $100 for my wife's this year. I know I'm getting a hell of a deal.

Yeah right. There is no state that resident hunting license could increase 400% and not see massive outrage. Any resident increase, in any state, draws complaints.

I'll let you in on a secret, all people everywhere complain about any price increase on anything, especially government related. Implying that this is unique to Wyoming resident hunters is a bit silly.

How many were killed and allowed to keep?

3

So 75% chance. That's pretty good!

If it’s not corruption that a state restricts certain activities on federal land for a group of people that helps pay for said land all for the benefit of a lobbying group than I guess I don’t know what corruption is.

Do you enjoy hunting federally designated wilderness areas in other states?

I enjoy following the laws set forth by the states that I don’t reside in therefore negating my ability to have an opinion or infringe on the tax payers in that state that elect the officials that make those laws. In other words I don’t try to change things in a state where I have no right to.
And if I don’t agree with those laws or regulations then I don’t go just as you should do with Wyoming. Boycott this corrupt state. That will show us the error of our corrupt ways.

My taxes also go to said wilderness areas
Can’t wait to hear your rationale about that

Eliminating all nr tags will never happen, despite all the chicken little stuff from nr's, so no need. But I appreciate the words of encouragement.

He was in no way implying that price complaining is unique to WY. He was responding to previous post that said all Res would gladly pay NR tag prices. Which we know is false.
