Yeah same here but many feel come hunting season it’s their own personal paradise and others are not welcome, they hate seeing NR license plates at a federal trailhead and will let us all know. Many many residents want the free access to land without sharing it with others and they are not shy about that.

I personally know a few CO residents that will not use federal land come hunting season for fear of being shot, they would love if all federal land was fire arm free.

There are many many views on federal land and the fact is most non hunters that use them do not like hunters.

In the end hunters will be the ones that ruin it for themselves.

Do I really want to see federal lands sold, for the most part no but I do believe we have millions of acres of land that either can’t be accessed or are not really used that should be sold.
People bitch, it’s what people do. Hunters bitch about other hunters. Mountain bikers bitch about other mountain bikers. UTVers bitch about other UTVers.

How many people have truly had a negative reaction from someone, while hunting, because of their license plate? I have been in four different states, with out of state plates hunting multiple times and never once had a single person say anything to me. Maybe a joke or two about being a Utard but 50% of those come out of my own mouth.

If anyone thinks selling land would make hunting more open for everyone, you have your head in the sand. Look at what has happened to waterfowl hunting. 100 bucks a gun per day on the cheap end. Yea, some people can pay it but there are more that can’t, especially young kids.

For the record some of our federal land should be disposed of, ideally to purchase winter range etc.

That being said you want to fuk up a good thing in the outdoors, get a Texan and a utard involved.

For everyone, no way, for nonresidents that spend thousands, yes.

I also would be for there being a $25-$50 a day charge to access federal land per person. Seriously $500 for 10 days is cheap. Feds could easily do this and use funds to add more forest service rangers, plus add a $25k fine and lifetime ban to anyone that doesn’t have a permit that is valid for the period of use.

People are to used to freeloading and having private playgrounds.

what tax bracket are you in? I can safely say I feel like my family pays more than our fair share of taxes. This might be the dumbest idea I have heard all day. All it would do is disenfranchise people who don’t have the funds to participateIMG_1101.jpeg

The budget the feds would require to operate that program would be astronomical.
