twigsnapper Report post Posted June 9, 2015 Costs me $50.00 to take my wife to the movie and have a soda and popcorn. $58.00 for a deer tag seems reasonable. A little high but nothing outrageous IMO. Times have changed. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MathewQuigly Report post Posted June 9, 2015 So it's not to much to ask if they want to charge more then manage the herds so that they grow not decline 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murfys69law Report post Posted June 9, 2015 I will say $57.00. If it was a buck in fitty.$1.00 in 1950. $37.00 in 2015 do the mathif its a junior tag and your still a buck low If you read it says HUNTING LICENSE right by his name. The tag is included. I'm just saying the license has only gone up $36.00. The tag however is now another fee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edge Report post Posted June 9, 2015 Just a comparison. In 65 years it's only gone up $36.00. I guess that's no too bad. Just a comparison. In 65 years it's only gone up $36.00. I guess that's no too bad.Another way to look at it, the permit went up 100% from 1912-1950, about 3% per year.From 1950 to today, the tag (and we're just talking a tag, here) has gone up nearly 4,000% in the last 65 years while the value of the dollar is only worth a fraction of what it was in 1950. Heck of a deal Yeah, I'll keep hunting. But I won't keep quiet. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was making a point on how the prices changed NOT including the tag. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Times have changed. If you get the combo deal with large coke and biggy popcorn it's only $49.50.. Better deal. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
naturebob Report post Posted June 9, 2015 I don't mind paying if it is quality.Elk can't be beat. Deer is terrible. That is what has the most tags so it should be managed much better. Screw the greenies and start killing more cats and coyotes. They still blame a big part on rain. Thats BS. Thats a small part oif it. Its mostly the dang predators. I don't even hunt deer hardly any more in AZ. Just suckering and buying points so I can get a quaility hunt. Memmo to AZ. G&F. Manage your dang deer . Its what most people hunt. If Quantity and Quality was much better, people wouldn't mind paying.................BOB! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
