RE: dislikes about nonresidents.
I haven't had time to read ALL of the posts, so if this has already been said, then please overlook this post.
All of us are protective of our hunting territory. We SHOULD be! The problem is that we are ALL citizens of the same country with the same rights, but different priveledges, and CERTAINLY different opportunities. I made a post a few days ago seeking information on an antelope hunt in another state. I would be glad to hunt them in my home state and not have to pay for another lisence and travel, but WE DON'T HAVE ANY GOATS DOWN HERE! We don't have any bears, elk, moose, or caribou either. We DO have some animals that maybe you don't have, but would like to hunt or fish- or at least have them in greater density. I figure that I should treat a non-resident hunting turkeys in my state the way I would want to be treated when I travel to hunt goats! If that person gets out of line with poor hunting practices - i.e a slob hunter- then he shold be treated like a RESIDENT slob hunter. REPORT HIM! Otherwise, he has paid for the same priveledge to hunt that I have.
