Non-Typical Solutions Report post Posted October 30, 2013 I remember back in the day when I lost my hunting license. I used to have to physically go to G$F and pay 5 bucks for a duplicate license. This past year as I put in for elk, I purchased my license as part of the draw process and it gave me the opportunity to print out my hunting license up to 10 days. I forgot to print my sons license during that 10 day period so I had to go online and apply for a duplicate. 5 bucks to reprint the license because it fell outside of the 10 day period. Here is my question? Why does it cost me to print out a duplicate at my house with my printer when it is already there and available through the G$F website. As a paying license holder who is already in the data bank why can't I just pull up my info and print out a duplicate??? Just wondering I mean it is only five bucks which is dirt cheap, just seems a little too simple to cost me 5 bucks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kazpilot25 Report post Posted October 30, 2013 I always save mine as a pdf when I get it online. That way if I lose it I can always reprint it at no cost. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Norteno Report post Posted October 30, 2013 +1 what kazpilot25 said... I print at least 5 copies when I buy it online and stick them in all of my packs/pockets and one in the truck for an emergency. I save mine as pdf and also print out copies and put them everywhere. Print them 1/2 size so they don't take up your whole wallet. I think I have one in every gun case, glove compartment and desk drawer in the house. I also email the pdf to myself so I can pull it up anywhere I am at on my phone. I also take a picture on my cell phone just in case. Never tried showing a game warden a picture of my license on my phone, but it might work?? I have no idea why they need the extra $5 either??

Scooter Report post Posted October 31, 2013 Don't feel dumb... We're the dumb ones for not being able to rely on ourselves to remember to bring our licenses with us! We stash the extras because we're forgetful! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
