[QUOTE="NDSportsman, post: 195236, member: 444"] My only issue with the gratis system is the acreage and actually farming requirement. The gratis tag was kind of a thank you to farmers and ranchers who actually make their living from the land the deer live on. It was never meant to be a means for every tom, dick and harry who owns a quarter to get a guaranteed tag every year. IMO the acreage requirement should be increased to 640 acres and those applying should be making 75% or more of their income from farming or ranching. I doubt it'll ever happen though as too many free loaders are taking advantage of the current setup. Don't even get me started on the preferential landowner tags for elk and moose. :mad: [/QUOTE]
