Why divide and conquer when you can divide and eliminate? ?The fiasco (2 percent NR diy quota) that is brewing in New Mexico is a blueprint for the antis. ?Imagine if every state implemented the same quota system......the number of big game hunters would drop throughout the West. ?The number of NR applicants (hunters) would tank and the number of resident hunters would follow suit when each state is forced to dramatically increase resident fees to make up the deficit. ?As nmpaul has been saying, we're asking for trouble when we involve politicians in making hunting decisions. ?Don't be surprised if the antis try to replicate this strategy in other states.
Yes, this is my first post on MM. ?I guess it took a ridiculous bill like this to get me to voice my opinion. ?Anyways, i've been a long time poacher (i mean lurker) on this site. ?In fact, i spend way too much time on this forum.....which in my opinion is much better than the hunting forums where i do post. ?Thanks for keeping me entertained over the past few years......everything from the duck call post to Stinkystomper's hunt on the Dutton to BearScat's 1,000 post Great Adventure. I just wish there would be more posts regarding Utah. ?Anyways, i guess it's time that i start contributing to this site instead of just being a leech. ?
