Default Lifetme Hunting License??

Does your state have one? How much is it and how much is the yearly charge if ya know? Just curious!?!

Md does not offer this option anymore for what I can find, but wish they did! I say "anymore" because I am pretty sure my Grandfather had one in both MD and WV many years ago!

Texas does, I have one. Was $600 one time fee when I got it, I think it is around $1000 now, not sure. It covers everyhting, forever. Except maybe the Federal Migratory Bird stamp, I don't know on that, not a duck hunter.

Arkansas has onebut it's a $1000 and the hunting/fishing combo license here which allows you to hunt and fish for everythingis only $35 (it may cost extra for a trout stamp). Not sure about the trout stamp b/c I don't trout fish.

True for persons 65 and over. Only others eligible are people who are severly disabled or veterans with a military related disability or that has been a POW. Right now the license fee for veterans is $5.50 for a lifetime. This does not include deer tags or turkey tags.

Oklahoma has them. I have the lifetime hunting/fishing combination that covers everything expect a waterfowl stamp (I've never had to buya deer or turkey tag). It was $775 when I got mine, I'm not sure what they are now. There has been talk of getting rid of them.

NY does. BUT, since I'm so old I didn't opt for it. Now they've come up with a buy in at age 65 for $50 if you want. Well, I get my license for $5 now because I'm over 40% disabled military vet. So, I'd technically have to live to buy a license for 10 years to eat up the $50. That would put me at 75 years old. I decided not to go for the lifetime since I have the $5 license. PLUS... filing as a disabled vet I get preference points on a doe permit. I got one this year. I applied for 2. They tell me I'll get at least one being disabled. I could have gotten it last year too but didn't know the rules until after I bought the license, paid $68 dollars and got the book. Then it was too late to undue the deed. I told the clerk, why didn't you tell me I could get it for $5. He said, you should have ask.[:@][:@]
