Just curious to "thoughts" out there.
per agenda briefing #11.
Under current rule, all big game and turkey hunters are issued a separate carcass tag or tags and that must remain attached to the carcass while it is in any vehicle, left unattended in the field, in camp or while in place of storage. As the department moves toward a web-based license sales system, hunters will be able to print licenses on standard printer paper from any computer. A separate carcass tag will no longer be issued. In order to accommodate the new licensing process, all the big game, turkey and javalina species rules must be amended to delete the requirement for a separate carcass tag.
YESTERDAY-This was voted on in Lordsburg and passed unanimously.
Personally.....I think this is ripe for abuse. Example: The private land over the counter deer licenses are being used to hunt anywhere according to folks on both sides of the isle. With yesterday's vote, now we can just print the license up.
Some of us have been trying to think of a way to get the private land deer over the counter license back under some sane control. Giving carcass tags to landowners to give to hunters was a thought made by one smart person out there. I thought that was a good idea......now we are at Katy Bar The Door.
With no watermark, how does one control this process? Hoping some of you out there can help me see the benefit of this other than making it easier on licensing admin by the department.
Some out there may think this is a smart move......no big deal. I need help understanding that thought process. Can someone shed some light?
