Dink, I stand corrected thinking that you were a land owner and had access to a property owner tag. I believe the point is that the state manages the wildlife. The state has authority of what the fees are. I too want the Feds to stay out of the states interest/business. That way MT,WY and Idaho could regulate wolves. But, I know this is not going to happen. Public land is owned by the public of whom we are. But, none the less, the state regulates, manages, sets fees, governs state interest regarding wildlife issues. The Fed does have guidelines, set by the U.S.F.&W., which each state must adhere to. All in all, if the fees are not to your liking I would plan otherwise. Perhaps you would be more comfortable hunting Texas. Be prepared to pay big $$ for access. Wyoming has lots of big game and vast amounts of public land. There are many alternatives. MTG
