And in the last 20 years I have seen a lot of Great Hunters start to give up their Passion because of cost !! And say they have other Priorities !!!! I hope I can always afford it !!! Great Post !!! :D

you'd figure with all the cuts they have already done there should be a decrease in cost, either that or it just proves how much mismanagement was going on before the cuts.

they have lost 2 million dollars a year since the spring bear hunt was axed. That was 2 million dollars lost in bear licences every year, they have to make up for that loss some how. You cant just take away that much money and not replace it. You can bet other things will go up in price as well with the way the economy is going.
