I guess I just don't understand the difference that people think that it makes. Your state requires a paper tag and then check in after twenty four hours.

And people were breaking the law. If you were required to go to a physical check station... How would that have impacted that group with nine birds? They still shoot them then they head home. Just like they planned to do anyway.

​​​​​When Ohio did away with check stations allot of people were saying the same thing. "now everyone will shoot all the deer" I didn't poach any more deer after the change than I did before the change. I just can't imagine that suddenly a bunch of people become poachers when tagging laws change. The people that were poaching before are still poaching. And the honest people are still honest. At least I hope so.
