It addresses all things you talked about here... and possible ways to change it.
Done! I think Illinois could learn a thing or two from Iowa. If non-residents couldn't hunt here more than 1 or 2 years in a row, then have to go on a waiting list to come back, it would solve a lot of problems with crowds on what little public land we have and maybe make leases a little cheaper. I have always said the worst thing to ever happen to deer hunting in Illinois is our reputation for "big bucks" and the IDNR's ever increasing thirst for revenue. The land may belong to the owners, but the Deer belong to the people of the state of Illinois, it would be nice if we had more access to them. All we can do is keep hammering the IDNR.
