lets dont forget , we'll have a sooner and a more defined rut .

man the shit they have tried to sell us over the years . it aint getting better . i still believe GC was meant to be a start for bigger and better thing .

Yeah but we really should try to mirror all of the northern and Midwest states. A 2 week season, 1 buck a season, no rifle just shotgun or bow only. It'll be great. We gotta have check stations.

Yep, nothing like a police state! Guilty until proved innocent!! Probable cause, we don't need no stinking probable cause!! Hail to the Chief!!

I'm not saying we do like them. We will never have the numbers of quality deer like they have, I was just curious as to what the naysayers thought of states that have true tag systems

Wasn't directing that at a post you made. Just seems that some folks keep trying to compare Alabama to other "successful" states and their deer policing strategies

Do I need to posts the aerial photographs again of those other prairie/ag states versus the pine plantations of Alabama again???

What happened to the "you can't have a one size fits all" approach and yet some want a "one size fits all" approach so Alabama can be just like those other states by doing it just like them???? Cause lord knows everything about Alabama's pine plantations are just like the rolling prairies and the corn fields of the midwest!!

Hey homie, reread my post. I never said we were like the ag states. I know we aren't.

Tags are coming, doesn't matter if you want them or not. I figure they will hire some of those Maine game wardens to show them how to do it.

This is Ohio's tagging requirement. You make your own tag with whatever -- big zip tie, cardboard, duct tape and laundry detergent box, whatever -- and put the info on it they require, affix to the deer, and it's officially yours. Then you have to check it in via their check system.

TAGGING PROCESS

All hunters who harvest a deer or turkey are required to create their own game tag.

We strongly recommend that hunters protect their deer and/or turkey permits and game tags from the elements by placing them in a plastic bag or protective pouch before and after they are attached to the animal.

STEP 1: Every person who kills a deer or turkey must immediately:

 Make a game tag with the hunter’s name, date, time, and county of kill.

 Attach the completed game tag to the deer or turkey at the place where it fell.

 Fill in the deer or turkey permit with the date, time, and county of kill. (Exempt landowners do not need to complete this step.)

Once finished with Step 1, the hunter legally possesses the deer or turkey and is free to transport it.

STEP 2: For deer, the hunter must complete the game check and tagging process by noon the day after the kill. If the deer is killed on the last day of a season, it must be checked in by 11:30 p.m. on the day of kill. For turkey, the hunter must complete the game check and tagging process by 11:30 p.m. on the same day the turkey was killed.

Think about why there might be a difference between the States and the possible reasoning for the save all tagging systems. Past that you can take your "homie" comment somewhere else, not a credibility builder around here.

Dude, it doesn't matter what the other states do. I am not saying follow the leader or anything. Just curious about what others thought about states with tagging systems in place. I would like to go hunt another state one year and more than likely they will have some sort of tag/check system in place. Just curious....


Whatever the law is, I will follow it

I also wonder what residents of said other states feel about their system? Hate it, used to it, all they have ever known, etc?

Then you better not get on a private boat during snapper season, because they will board your vessel. So for the ones in the know, is that any different than the road block?

Just follow the law and report your harvest. It's a simple process.

Law? What Law??
One of those pesky things that has been overlooked, skirted around and generally disregarded by the current DCNR in writing unjustifiable Regulations??

I guess we should be ashamed!

Cue ikillbux and therealhoejoe to post about their great seasons, the massive amounts of quality wildlife they encountered, how easy the Regs are to follow and what terrible people we are for questioning the Regs........

Tags will be here in a few years, its coming so get ur azzes ready. I'm saying they will cost $10 each if not more.

I'd say worse. Search and seizure without probable cause.

You are probably right. I hate it but it may be inevitable. Alabama has some of the most hunter friendly regs in the country now and I wish they would stay that way. But heck people can't even do the simple stuff they have now.

Maybe it'll keep the damn OOSERs away if so.
