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.
Anyone else thinks this makes sense? completely disagree?
How about no. Since I can only assume you mean one very large trophy moose, big horn sheep or goat I'd still say no. The application process for a true trophy in a true trophy area can take many years, in some cases 15 or more. The cost to actually get a moose license or for that matter either of the other twois high even as a resident. States that don't necessarily have such trophy hunts still charge a premium for out of state hunters, why shouldn't mine.
