New Tag format Next Year ?

Bingo X2!!!

It will be much easier.

New way: You shoot a deer and notch the paper tag so if you get stop you are good to go. Get home and print a new tag from a PDF file and go back hunting.

Old way: You shoot a deer and you don't notch the tag so you can use it for another day if you get stop you are nailed.
Old way: You shoot a deer and you notch the tag if you get stop you are good to go. But then you have no more tag to show so if you get stop hunting or driving home with a deer you are nailed.

This is a really bad idea!!

Highest tag costs ever, and making it easier to re-use them without getting caught. What could go wrong?

I give 5 years and we'll be back to mailed out tags. The bad guys will have a field day with this one.

I got checked by a CO ice fishing. I asked him about electronic licenses. He said it's really hard to tell if the person with the phone showing him the license is in fact the owner of the license. The picture is very small I guess.

Take a look at what the US Departments are doing and you'll see our future..they're already 5 yrs ahead of us.
Electronic/Digital systems are replacing paper.

They're trying it,but,it doesn't work for millions of hunters who aren't into e-commerce or don't own cell phones and computers. The backlash is brutal. Some would argue that they're light years behind us.

Yet I imagine the numbers of those technically challenged are far greater down than here, but then again it sounds like people on here still have problems with their printers ..LOL...

No, not necessarily technically challenged, I know quite a few guys that do not have cell phones, they say they have no reason to own one and are not interested, [ their choice ] the same goes for computers, not everyone has one , especially the older group or those living well out in the boonies.

This site is for Kentucky's new no tag system for carcasses...gives a good idea on how it works...

edit add; I see that they responded to hunters complaints that they had to have a pencil/pen..so they apparently changed to a tag that has a tear off portion now...

The new system doesn't limit anyone who doesn't have a computer or printer....if they went to the DNR/MNR last year to pick up a tag they can still do it that way after the new system is in place.

No cell..then they must have access to a landline...I know because I don't carry a cell phone and would never have one with me when I was hunting, so I know where I can go to make a call if need be.

I'm sure a CO would understand and let you borrow his phone to register your deer if you had a convincing tale of woe..LOL..

Low percentage road blocks...resistance to change is futile...LOL..


(surely if some redneck old boy from southern Kentucky can figure it out Jaycee....LOL)
