Thread #754 on Colorado closing hunting to non-residents

[Ucsdryder]

Might as well have a poll!

No, I think they enjoy rolling in the dough at $750 a tag... Thats a lot of revenue generated.

Plus the $100 bear tag...
Plus the small game license....
Plus, plus, plus... It adds up quick.

I think the Wubonic plague fallout will be limiting non res participation enough.

 

[Upstate SC]

Doubt they will close it. CO is taking a hit in tourist dollars so I don’t think they would want to make it worse, especially for an activity that uses extreme social distancing.

I typically would say parks and rec would never pass up the money. But our stellar governor seems to be intent on destroying the state's economy. So calling it a toss up at this point.

Open or closed, I’ll be slinging arrows at elk in Colorado regardless. Lol

Yep. "For the children!"

 

[Ucsdryder]

Yeah I don’t think anybody in government gives a hoot about $$$$ right now.

 

[Tick]

I wouldn't be surprised either way now. Some of these state and local governments have passed orders I never thought would have been tolerated in the USA.

Mayhem on the leftover list this year.

I predict people are going to complain they "got screwed" because there will be delays in turning back in their semi-desirable list A tags so they can try and swoop up the more desirable tags on leftover day. They won't get the latter, and then blame CPW for going to poo after merging with Parks, while watching the former tag go to someone else.

I think option D, they want money and don’t really care about residents so nonresidents are a go, residents... sorry

Well you can’t ever get the A list tags anyways bc the dam site crashes

CO is opening up quicker than most states, even earned the governor a personal meeting and props from trump. It wouldn’t not shock me if non-residents are not allowed to come to better protect the ski season. I wouldn’t expect refunds, ski passes were not. Small discount was provided for next year’s purchase.

Ya, and then Polis lied to Trump and told him "the entire state is open except bars and gyms". Trump should have immediately replied with "Good, I'll make a stopover in CO this week and go to that restaurant in Castle Rock........you know, the one that you suspended their license on, on Monday".

Another fear mongerning thread. Are you a sheep or a wolf?

Certainly there are regulations in place, commonsensical, that being said businesses are open for business. Some with more restraints than others.

Can’t spread a virus out in the forest away from people. Non residents pay over nine times the rate of a resident for a elk tag. I doubt they want to lose those dollars. Use a mask, gloves and sanitizer getting fuel. Bring your food in with you.

Either way I’m going hunting as a non resident. Duck the government either way
