Anyone that did not know this fact several years ago is either living under a rock or too clueless to be any help to the cause. Terry has not listened to our deer biologists and their recommendations for years. This is a non-story at this point.

This really makes you sound like an idiot. Is that what you are after?

The fact that I live here and have been involved with the ag industry for 24 years might mean I know a little something about the current state of affairs and trends. I have only pointed out some things that you and others don't ever want to listen to or discuss. Typical. You like to distort...

Not at all.

No, we cant prevent it. But, we don't need to encourage it by rewarding them with extra hunting privileges. That's my point. As far as South Dakota goes. I have actually looked at land there a couple of years ago. Just did a quick search again and found thousands of acres of pasture land...

The other side: Nonresidents have inflated the price of "rough" ground to the point that our cattle producers struggle to ever grow their operation. I have several clients that would explain to you that their son or sons would love to join the family farm operation and expand the herd, but...

I doubt if they are going to move their primary residence here. I would guess that many of them are done being faux residents.

That ship sailed long ago. The demand has peaked. A handfull of celeb tags does little to influence the hunting community anymore. In fact, if a nonresident doesnt mind hunting with a gun, they can hunt here very frequently. In most zones, every other year or more. In my opinion, the...

Oh the irony. If you only knew. :p

This will get interesting for sure. Looks like some solid questions that will make a few folks scratch their heads. I love it. Best of luck to you and I hope you get a response with specifics.

I don't think that the rules were so much changed as they were clarified. The intent was always that you must be a "resident" to have resident hunting privileges. The problems started when guys started to skirt the true intentions of the rules. That's when the rules were clarified to more...

Again, huh? I will agree that its not what it once was, but not allowing NRLO's tags has absolutely nothing to do with it. Really, nothing at all.

Oh please, I am all ears. I so want you to explain it all to me. I really do. Because I haven't a clue. Sorry if you had to look some of those words up. I can back off on the vocabulary if it helps.

The irony is that only the NRLO's seem to think that we have a problem that needs fixing by allowing guaranteed tags. In the end, it would make the problem exponentially worse. But, you dont see the irony and never will because your ideas only serve your wants. As far as answers, yes, I do...

The better question would be why? That seems extremely self serving. Ties in nicely with the entire thought process of most NRLO's though. Kind of makes for a great example of the mentality of those that bought ground planning on better regulations ahead. Why reward them for their mistake...

Not at all. Only a contradition for your argument which is full of fallacy. In no way are those things a contraditction. In fact, your points fully support my postition. NRLO's cause huge problems for state deer management. At no point could a NRLO "control" the doe population. So why buy...

What on earth does that have to do with you not being guaranteed a tag every year? Your focus has been questionable throughout this entire thread, but you really have gone off course here. I had a local poacher shoot a buck on one of my properties this year from the road. It happens...

Your really are stretching. I mean really.... I absolutely beg you to check with the admins and see if I ever posted as "Cedarcreek". They have my permission to make that info public. Do you think I am the shooter from the grassy knoll? lol Talk about a conspiracy theorist. You are...

No, but they supported the efforts of those that try. Birds of a feather.

I know it hurts. But look, you could always move here. Or, you can buy ground somehwere else. Like I said, every state has deer. A lot of them now have a lot more deer than we do. Check it out. The only NR's I have EVER had a problem with, are those that want to change things for their...
