I posted before about in general the non-res vs. res discrepancy in tag fees.

My latest idea, would be to place certain species in a specialty category in which non-res and residents would pay the same price.

I don't think there is a state in the US where people hunt sheep, goat, perhaps moose on an ongoing basis for meat....I think most if not all of these animals are typically once in a lifetime sort of tags...

I would think even residents of a state would be willing to pay non-res fees for the chance to draw say a desert bighorn sheep tag, am I wrong? and other specialty/once in a lifetime tags.

So why not bring in more money with equality priced specialty tags?

meat hunters would still be able to hunt for elk, deer, antelope etc...for much cheaper resident fees, but what would be the problem asking a resident to pay full price for a once in a lifetime tag?

Personally I would probably put, all bighorn sheep on this list, mtn goat, moose, ibex, Oryx, any other specie suggestions?

Anyone else thinks this makes sense? completely disagree?
