Message: <blockquote data-quote="shorthairman" data-source="post: 229850" data-attributes="member: 6223">From a NR perspective (by the way, I am barely a deer hunter in NE so put the rope away...I'm not going to come up and shoot your deer...)Under $250 to get a deer tag in Nebraska with youth NR at $8.  Western NE has Mule and Whitetail so opportunity to hunt both.I think I am correct in that all National Parks are supported by all Americans who pay taxes.  Same with wildlife management areas that the USFWS maintain.  I'm sure the money spent for my migratory bird stamp doesn't just stay in NE.  Also, NR spend extra money in ND that wouldn't otherwise get spent there.  On top of paying 5x the price for a tag (which when compared to WY and MT $250 is low I agree), NR buy gas, groceries, beer, hotels, gloves and shells left at home, new boots after they realize the ones they have aren't waterproof, taxidermy if fortunate...keep reading maybe not so fortunate...etc. That is extra income for your state.  Apparently these are hung over bumbling idiots with stinky feet coming in from up wind that skyline and need a hunter etiquette course so they probably aren't harvesting deer anyway...I would guess not really hurting the deer population. I agree it can be frustrating to pull up to a spot only to find it already occupied by a NR vehicle.  I've been on both sides...I got started on this site because I came up to fish Sakakawea and some of you were helpful with suggestions, but I'm pretty sure some of the guys looked at our boat sticker before deciding how much information they were going to give...if any.  Being in education I only have weekends during hunting season so I value that time and when something throws a wrench into what I thought was a well laid out plan, I can either throw my arms up and go back home or move on to plan B.  I don't think moving NR back 2 weeks will solve the issue. They will just come in 2 weeks later...might as well get it over with early.  Most probably won't or can't be back later, so wait 'em out and get out there when the hunting is better anyway.</blockquote>
