I totally agree that non resident tags should be somewhat higher.I have never hunted outside of missouri but have been trying for 4 years to get a wyoming elk tag.Its been a little dream of mine to hunt elk. personally the dream is starting to sour with the $200 worth of preference points.So if I draw a tag for 2010 I will have a grand total of $850 wrapped up in the tag alone. Kinda takes the fun away a little bit as then I feel pressured to take the first animal I might see over being able to wait for a bull.
