My thought was that if I see an untagged animal in a truck or trailer now, I know the law is being broken in some way as it stands now (didn't affix his tag, or doesn't have one). But, in the future, you won't be able to readily determine if everything is legit (buddy has tag in pocket, but not required to affix to animal) or illegal (has no tag for animal).Quote:

Granted as a follow up,the CO's will be able to check that the tag is validated which any poacher with half a brain will realize their poaching activity is over. That's the upside. The downside is they can keep going until they get stopped virtually unhindered. I'm still not comfortable with this new system simply because of this one aspect.Quote:

But again..the guy can still go out and poach a deer...
It will be much easier.Quote:

Bingo.Quote:

All that BS takes a lot of the fun away and lots of extra $h1t to go thru for one deer (i.e. require to call before 5pm means to be out of the bush for most of us, leaving the camp to drive around to find signal instead of celebrating and such).
A lot of hunters are going to be called poacher for not following stupid rules.... The entire world is going to crap these days and some of us are just find with it, follow the herbs, and seems to promote those changes..... :(
I really can't understand how my $25 printer can make this happen. When I buy a theater or an airport parking ticket online I can make as many copies as I'd like and the first one that I scan is a winner, until then they can all work. But who knows, there might be a secret out there....Quote:
