Rattler I am not sure what it was really over. Other than people being mad at outfitters. Everyone that voted for it had to know that what ever tag price increases would be taken out on the "average" non-resident hunter.
I think the economic impact will have a effect on many. The guys that pack there tent,meals and supplies from home probaly don't spend alot of money in montana other than for there tag and fuel. This is just a guess on my part but I think there will be alot of montana business owners unhappy about the money they make in october.
What really is going to be bad is if everyone continues to hunt montana. Then the rest of the western states will raise there tag prices to match.
