How many of your states still have check stations?

I know both Illinois and Missouri have gone to the telecheck system... How many of you guys live in states where you still take your deer to a physical location and check them in?

Ohio is a check station state.

Arkansas has check stations. We have a choice to either check deer at a station or online.

IMO, online check-ins only helps facilitate poachers.

Got to get out in the big wide world soon.

Greg....we're a phone-in state (NC). But I agree with the above....even as I know how much of a PITA is would be, for me.

Here in NJ we still have a check station system, more states should be doing it

We still check 'em in here in MN, but I do some part-time work at a bait store during the school year, and the DNR sent us some info saying that we will switch to phone-in in the next few years.

In Pa you musttake bears to a check station.For deer we have postage paidharvest report cards that are "supposed" to be mailed in for each kill. I mail mine in all the time,I just wish everyone else would so the PGC would have a REAL idea of how many deerare taken by hunters. I think they are going to be starting an internet deer check sometime in the future. That won't change anything except save them somemoney on the currentpostage paid cards.
