And people who want to apply can buy a license like public land hunters, and that will only provide more funding to support the program they are using.

I disagree with you on this one. The people that pay club dues make it a priority to save money to spend on hunting each season therefore they won’t mind paying that little bit of extra money for a chance to hunt a extra property.


I agree, and that $17.50 or whatever it is will go towards buying more public land or maintenance of current land. Why is it free to apply for people who $17 is nothing compared to what they spend on leases every year. If you require WMA license to apply it will give people who are already buying the license and people who are willing to support conservation a better chance.
