14. license/permit issues and suggestions, number and location 



OF PERMITS, cost, ETC. 



I think that drawing for elk tags for bow season was a real bad 

 idea. 



Rather than increasing licenses further, I would rather see F & G 

 require hunters to purchase a license before filing for a special 

 permit. This was the policy a few years ago. To me, this would 

 seem to raise more revenue for game management than increasing 

 tags . 



Money for liscences should be accounted for in the areas it is 

 spent. Should keep money in the east if it is spent in the east 

 and so forth. The drawing for archery permitts in areas 621, 

 622, 623 should not have to be your first choice. It should be 

 allowed to be your 2nd or 3rd. 



I just heard you are raising fees again. It is beginning to 

 appear that you are just like the gov. The more money you get 

 the more you spent and the more you want and then you want more 

 and more and more. You've raised the cost of tags almost every 

 year for 10 years when are you going to quit? 



I feel a person should possess not only the conservation license 

 but also an elk tag before they can send for drawing of permits. 

 This would cut down on the number of people sending to only those 

 who are serious about hunting. 



If archery hunters could only choose one species of game to hunt 

 with a bow, most would choose elk hunting because elk are vocal 

 during this time of year. The result would be increased hunting 

 pressure on elk and elk would eventually become even more 

 difficult to hunt. I personally think that this is a poor 

 management idea . 



I know you are anddo make a serious effort, in regards to 

 wildlife and the public, but I believe the wrong person must be 

 makeing decisions or makes wrong decisions. Sometimes when a 

 comittee try to build a horse you final product look more likea 

 camel. Right now your camel has one hump and I personally 

 believe there will be two humps by Sept. 3rd. I deeply love 

 being out there, kill or no kill, but the newest hump may have me 

 internally saden if I have to draw for my area and don't. I've 

 scouted my area year round for 4 years, 30 weekends 2 years ago. 

 Please don't take my happiness in life away. 



The only thing I disagree with in both archery and rifle season 

 is our (local hunters) license fees went up but out of state 

 licenses stayed the same. I think that is real unfair.
