Message: <blockquote data-quote="wct12" data-source="post: 450037" data-attributes="member: 8117">I commented on this thread earlier and said a lot of these same things but here they are again..I do think something needed to change with Antelope licenses. Is this bill it? In my opinion no but I’m not sure what else could have been done without some discussion and thought, but it would’ve been nice for the department to have some discussions back and forth about it at things like advisory board meetings (I think advisory board meetings are pretty worthless in my honest opinion but this is where they bring that stuff up).Now my reason for not being a huge fan of this bill.. (I said it earlier and Brock and I had some nice back and forth along with others) is a guy hopes that the ability to get gratis tags (maybe even fairly frequently in the case of antelope) helps keep access open in a state that’s 90+% private lands. (I also have never drawn an antelope tag in my life and can’t get a gratis so the skin in the game thing isn’t there for me like some in opposition.Not sure how many guys have hunted the western half/specifically the south west corner of the state outside of the badlands but access was already tough.. I hope this bill doesn’t make it even tougher, those boys are some staunch private property rights advocates (as am I). Maybe the department having some sit downs with landowners and sportsmen and trying to come up with a solution instead of just supporting this bill would be viewed more positively than them just supporting this bill.</blockquote>
