I agree with you guys on the licensing part but I think you will need a LARGE amount of the hunting population to do that. I think the key is to get the guys that travel to quit hunting for a while. If you get some of the local hotels, restaurants and sporting goods store on your side it will help a lot. I know most of you guys don't like Illinois hunters, but I didn't head to WI this year and when I look at all the money I spend in WI (License, Hotel, food, gas, beer
(only after the hunt)) That turns out to be a lot of money not given to the local economy. License amounts is nothing compared to what people spend on the other things while they are hunting. Get the non-local deer hunters to stay away and thats when the gov't will really start to listen.
