fatfootdoc Report post Posted February 24, 2011 I actually made contact with Howie about his bill proposal and after we got it straightened out I did not feel that the title was appropriate. I asked Amanda (Thank you) to remove it. AG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

desertdog Report post Posted March 17, 2011 Why would it be a good thing to get rid of land owner tags? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamaro Report post Posted March 17, 2011 Why would it be a good thing to get rid of land owner tags? Because the tags that go to landowners are a public resource that is given away for private gain. I have no problem with private landowner rights and I don't mind paying a tresspass fee but don't privatize the animal itself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have no problem with private landowner rights and I don't mind paying a tresspass fee but don't privatize the animal itself. How is land owner tags "privatizing" game. All residents and non-residents have the opportunity to hunt all species of game in New Mexico if I understand correctly. Unless there is a species of animal that a hunter can only hunt by obtaining a land owner tag, the general public still has access to the animals (through the draw, over the counter tags etc.). So how are they privatized? Am I missing somthing here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So how are they privatized? Am I missing somthing here? The key is that they are LO tags... Nobody has access to those tags unless the LO gives or sales the tag... Therefore it privatizes the animal... It takes the tag out of the general pool.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Rabbit Report post Posted March 25, 2011 If I read it correctly, cow elk would be resident only and % were changed http://www.wildlife.state.nm.us/documents/documents/BillTracking_3-18-11.pdf 2/25/11 – Committee Substitute reduced Non-resident Game Hunting License cost; Antlerless elk hunts are resident only; WMA hunts are resident only; sets draw to 84% Resident, 10% contracted with outfitter, regardless of residency, 6% Non-resident; adds language to define a NM Outfitter.
