[QUOTE="Obi-Wan, post: 180967, member: 709"] G&F job is to manage the heard and give as many people the opportunity to hunt that the deer population allows. More hunters in the field ( no one doubles up on tags ) with minimal changes to the overall deer harvest work to keeps these goals This is how I think it could work bow tags could be bought over the counter but only before the application deadline and would be for archery only, the same as it is now. Those who choose to purchase a bow tag would be ineligible for the lottery. For those that enjoy archery they would be guaranteed a tag for archery and would not loose their bow tag but would not be allowed a rifle / muzzy tag. If one decides to apply and receives a rifle tag any legal weapon could be used but the tag would only be good for the rifle season and in the unit specified. Applicants could only apply for one tag either rifle or muzzy and if successful it could only be used in that season stated on the tag. Muzzy tags recipients could only hunt with a muzzle loader and in the muzzy season. If half of those who purchased bow tags in 2016 decided to buy a bow tag that would take about 12,000 applicants out of the drawing for rifle or muzzy tags increasing the odds of all applicants. I am sure this could use some tweaking but I think it would work in getting more guys in the field. For those guys that recommend everyone buy a bow tag you may want to think that over because if bow tags purchases keep going up, which they have in recent years G&F may be forced to make more drastic changes that you may not like.
