There is NO $500.00 fee planned. The only pending legislation currently maintains the existing NR deer tag cost, and does NOT mention instituting a lottery.

" I hope the local outfitters, and business owners have enough clout to stop anything that foolish. " "

I hate to say this, but at the Deer hunting Advisory Committee, your " local outfitters" were the ones who proposed the NR fee increase. You have them to thank, in large part, for the price.

Rumors, rumors, rumors.
