Count your blessings I hunt Connecticut as a NR the current cost for a NR archery only license is $100.00. There is a proposed increase that will increase the NR license to $200.00. Connecticut has good hunting and a long seasonbut it is not Iowa.

Well thats great. In a family of 4 being myself, wife, and 2 boys old enough to hunt big game now it'll cost my family $360 this fall. I think we should all thank Gov. Patterson for doing a fine job here in NYS with all his crazy tax increases, wanting to raise college tuitions, less funding for hospitals, and trying to do away with the Star Program. All this moron is going to do it push more businesses and people out of this state. [:@]

It makes me sick that sportsman have to pay for all the liberal's spending spree's.I wouldn't mind so much if the money actually went to conservation but none of it does.On a brighter note Patterson will probably not get elected when that time comes but who ever does will likely screw us just the same as there's far to many liberal voters and conservatives stand little chance.I always remain hopeful though and always vote in any election I can.

so the super sportsman is going to cost 90 bucks now... that really sucks
$90 dollars, I bow hunt about twenty day's, gun hunt about 15 days, Turkey 15 day's in the spring maybe 5 in the fall. Fishing 30-40 days a year (That will increase this year.) Small game maybe 5-7 times a year.
In comparison, my son's lacrosse heads for his lacrosse sticks cost $90, he went through six in his senior year.
Take the family out to dinner with tip about 80 bucks.
My daughter basketbal shoes were about $60.
What's it cost to go to the movies, as many times as I use my sportsmen's license.
What's a lease cost?
What's your bow cost?
If you're a golfer what's that cost a year?
$90 dollars for the time I spend in the woods, to be able to go Salmon and Walleye fishing, and bond with my kids, priceless.
Abarofsoap, You're young,right? Get a part time job andbuy a lifetime license.Skip the Cmere deer this year it's illegal anyway, you'll have enough money fora license.[8D]

I look at some of the signatures on this site listing all the money you spend on your equipment and then complain about $90 dollars to use it?
I'll save over $90 by picking my ownnight walkers and making my own jigs this year, it cost me about $90 to respool my Salmon reels. Two days troling cost me more then $90 dollars.
Break it down, Archery License, Gun license, Fishing License, Turkey stamps, Small game license, divide by your days afield, what's it cost?
With what I posted I'm using my license about 80 times a year for $90.
My son uses his proably 120 times for $90.
(disclaimer this not aimed at anyone just an observation)
It's funny what people complain about paying for and then, blow money on things, and never think twice about it.
Cigs, Chew, Beer, lottery tickets, strippers, etc,etc.
