But does it really? Realistically, the states will have to go to a lottery with all chances equal. What is really going to happen is the people of each state will no longer care about the welfare of animals. Emotionally, the wildlife will no longer be "theirs". This is the further demise of our wildlife, one I do fear they will not recover from.

the worst thing about it is one man is trying to benifit from it and make a lot of money like he does in NM. He wants to set up camp in AZ like he did in NM. the next thing he will try to push is a outfitter preference or qouta like NM has. I hate that man..... my son will never afford to elk hunt when he's my age.

I don't fault the man for trying to make money, but I do fault him for trying to do it at the expense of the citizens of the State of Arizona. Taulman is an asshole, plain and simple. His only interest is in $$. It would serve him right if everyone boycotted his outfit.

If he has a web page, maybe we could do a little hammering of the site, I know I would..

Taulman's outfit is at web page

Good Luck..

Just because it would help your buisness, you would hinder all of hunting for others that can't afford your prices or want to hunt on their own...This is very very short sighted on your part and will destroy alot of good rules just for your own greed....This is very socialist and UnAmerican........

Not too bad for a countryboy/firefighter/sawyer/elk killer/lime soda pop drinker. It might not be a bad idea for everyone to load up the web site with "Hey what the f*** is wrong with you guys" messages...

 

[MULE]

I thought that guy was under indictment for using an aircraft to pursue big game.

Whatever came of that?

 

[danr55]

Mule, to the best of my knowledge, nothing has come of it yet. I haven't heard any more.

WHAT IS UNAMERICAN IS THE EXCLUSION AND
DISCRIMINATION OF ONE AMERICAN FROM HUNTING
FEDERAL LAND IN A CERTAIN STATE BECAUSE HE LIVES IN
ANOTHER STATE.
