Cyclone is right...before we spout off without the education on the matter perhaps first you should research it. With talking with one of the PA chapter presidents' of the NWTF, they backed this stamp and I agree with it because the monies will go towards the birds. PA wouldn't be where it is with turkeys and turkey hunting without the NWTF and they (PGC) are not going to jeopardize their relationship with them for a chance at more money. In this case, the little extra money out of your pocket is going to the birds, if you don't hunt them, don't buy it. I think this will help the populations too by cutting out the weekend warrior who happens to shoot a bird by chance especially if they make it mandatory for a fall tag. I wouldn't care if our resident fee's went upward of $100, it's still cheap entertainment, a passion I'll never forgo and I've spent a heck of a lot more for less of a good thing.

DT, I teach at local Jakes programs and even tho I have no children, the reward was incredible with those youngsters. Well said.
