PERFECTLY SAID!!! I have zero problem with a license cost increase. Check out some of the out of state non-resident license fee's. Then I'd like to hear what people have to say about an increase!
You are comparing our state and it's opportunities to that of states like Iowa and Illinois????? Pa Can Not Charge What Those States Charge Because Pa Doesn't Offer What they Offer. How about Ohio, right next door?? For $125 I can hunt deer with a bow, crossbow,muzzleloader and shotgun. And in addition to that I can hunt Archeryfrom the end of September straight through till Feb 1. I spent more $ as a Pa residenthunting inPa with less of an opportunity to harvest a P & Y buck than I have in Ohio. Now tell me again how the PAGC deserves more money when not providing a more satisfying hunting experience.
Well guess what? In Pa (WMU 5-D), where I hunt, you can start archery hunting from the middle of Sept and hunt on and off (more on than off) untilJan 24th!Forget all that though.
I'll start with the fact that you can do everything that you mentioned doing in Ohio for a lot less in Pa, and then some!! Pa boast's the largest strain of black bear in all of NA. How's the bear hunting in Ohio?
Here's a license fee breakdown.
Adult Resident: $20
Archery/CB Tag: $16
Muzzle Loader Tag: $11
*Bear Tag: $16
(3 should be enough
)3 Antlerless Tags:$18 ($6 each)
Total: $81
Where's the comparison?
