Exactly!! And we will NEVER get an answer for why this is a requirement other than some BS "management plan that nobody can tell you about!

Then you tell him you either have your confirmation number or you don’t. It’s not rocket science.

I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

Sure looks to me like the sole purpose of the dcnr under this administration is to make money. It's no different than any corporation; they just happen to make their money by selling the public access to the outdoors. And they have brainwashed most hunters into believing that they perform an essential service and there would be no fish or game without them.

I still think a much better model would be to abolish the state agency and divide the license money out to the sheriffs, then have them employ the GWs. Require each one to employ at least one full time conservation officer, but then every deputy would also serve as a GW. Set the seasons and limits with an elected CAB. I realize that model would have it's on problems, but it least it would be more responsible to the people.

No idea. Have used it 9 times in past 3 years to report deer killed and never had a problem. On and off the phone in 3 or 4 minutes every time.

I know how to process them and it's much easier and less messy and I can get on to doing something else after I drop it off at the processor. Long story short, its easier to gamecheck it than process it for me.

You’d never make a good politician you have too much common sense! I like your idea though.

^^^^ THIS! Every question, comment, complaint and suggestion needs to burn their phones up! It's way past time to hammer Sykes for his handling of DCNR and call him out till he won't even come out of his house. Call TV stations and local newspapers and demand answers. RAISE HELL until you're heard and then push for changes! You won't get anywhere just posting on here.

I hunt exclusively in TN and wish y'all well on this.
