Yep and that continual increase in out of state license cost, combined with the outrageous inflation on everything else is already lowering the number of out of state hunters traveling to AL to lease land and hunt. Chuckie and the powers that be, are quietly and slowly killing that golden goose which, in the grand scheme of things isn’t going save a single deer. The harvest void created by limiting the out of state hunters will be more than filled by the game hog locals just killing more deer. Here’s the math of it: one out of state license sale is equal in revenue to essentially 30 in state license sales. Let’s say there are 210,000 in state licenses sold @ $15; that’s $3.15 million in revenue. Now let’s say there are 20,000 out of state licenses sold @$400; that’s $8 million in revenue. This disparity doesn’t even account for guys like me with a lifetime license I purchased 25 yrs ago that they are getting no license revenue from anymore. If the state is smart and really cares about the wildlife, and we have the major problems youre suggesting and hypothecating that we already have, seems like the best way to improve hunting and health of the wildlife in the state would be to limit the in state license sales to just landowners with a minimum acreage of X amount only, thus limiting the impact of largest pool of hunters while promoting increasing the number of out of state hunters which are the smallest pool by a factor of 10x, to maximize the money coming into AG&F for enforcement and wildlife mgmt and minimize the animals harvested. Be very careful what you wish for CNC. If I know the state of AL and the way the Chuckie views things, they’ve already done this math. And this little math lesson doesn’t even begin to account for the economic impact on towns and cities and local businesses of the out of state hunters versus in state hunters, which is astronomically higher, by a factor of 100X to 200X than the license revenue disparity. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ is what drives the wildlife mgmt goals in AL and don’t ever forget that.
