lol im crying for others(like my kid) i dont need to buy licenses anymore. last deer tag i bought i believe was $16 something. that was long ago.
not everyone has the cash to spend hunting all over the country. i for one could spend 500 bucks on an out of state hunt but i just wouldnt. im a cheapskate but there are plenty like me.

i have a friend that spends upwards of 5 grand to elk hunt every year. he is single and makes 100,000 a year so its nothing to him. i believe i gave $708 for my lifetime license long ago. i had to talk myself into spending that much back then! lol im glad i did now! it paid for itself many years ago and now it makes me money. turkey trout deer tags add up to a hundo or more a year with fees these days.
