[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 329948, member: 3373"] I'm not so fussy on the start age but I definitely like the idea of some guaranteed tags up to about the age of 18. In a lot of units they get started with a couple tags and then have to wait sometimes 5-7 years for another tag. Doesn't do much for keeping them interested IMO. I know there are units that are more available which isn't such a big deal for adults but not so easy for kids to travel away from home. Let's do what we can to keep them interested. Me, for example, started hunting at the age of 14. Hunted for many years in the badlands with family and always drew a tag. Then switched to whitetails in the NC part of the state and still got a tag every year. That was tue from the age of 14 to 49. Now 71 and have had a tag maybe 6 or 7 of these past years. Not blaming anyone, I like to hunt mule deer so I'm always applying for a hard to get tag. I've shot enough deer so I can survive with my limited tags but really hate to see young people have to wait. [/QUOTE]
