Being a resident of Illinois, I think 20,000 N.R tags issued is about 15,000 too many. And don't even get me started on the outfitter situation here. I know many of you will respond negative to my feelings towards this, but I live here, pay taxes here, and have had hunting land suddenly "closed" to me because an outfitter from NY bought the rights to lease the land and then it's back to square one. But Iknow that money makes the world go around, and it will only get worse. It's like those maps they showed years back of the projected migration of killer bees, now your in West Central IL, in 3-5 years, it'll be 50% of the state.

As an Ohio resident, I am feeling your pain here in Ohio! Thanks to all the record bucks killed the past few years in Ohio and ALL the freakin publicity that it has gotten. Oh well, guess thats part of American freedom!

even here in NJ, we lost our lease farms from the big shots on wall street, they take there clients out hunting, and for the most part it is small game hunting
