Curt,
The law applied as of 1 Sep 07 so Turkey was covered.
The change doesn't affect me since I buy a combo every year. I have a few friends that only hunt big game and are really pissed about the whole thing.
Braz,
Yes all our sportsmens dollars go into the general fund. Then our legislature allocates us (wildlife consumers) about 72% of the dollars we put in. That is why our F&G guys are so underpaid. Look at the difference in Wy. vs Ut in saleries paid to game wardens, it's about a $7.00 an hour difference.
I bitch and complain every year to my elected officials but no-one gives a darn. So, I pay my money and take my chances in the Utah lottery. Then I go big game hunt in Wy. and Nv.
IFG
