status quo works well. I think the way our system is set up is excellent. When you compare to places like Wisconsin where you have to draw for a specific week to turkey hunt in, etc it really makes me appreciate our system.
I wouldn't mind seeing something like a "Turkey Stamp" which works like a Duck Stamp where the money would go to purchase land suitable for turkey habitat and for hunting...even if it was a voluntary purchase, etc. Although who am I kidding the government would take that money to put up more windmills or just keep it..
I would like to be able to shoot two birds in the same day. It doesn't happen often but if it did I wouldn't mind to be able to shoot the second. And another idea would be if you didn't fill your second tag, maybe that tag could carry on for the fall hunt since the fall hunt is so short and the tags are the same price seems silly to me.

Licence cost too high, eliminate MNR $2 per transaction fee. The property owner who gave me hunting permission was shocked how much I paid for a licence. I got 2 turkeys last year, once I told him the fee for 2 seals, he thinks we're crazy to pay those fees. For him, animals are bought low and sold for profits.
During my turkey safety course, I do recall being told; "Don't turkey hunt to save $."
