Rattler I understand that. I look at though as your hatred toward the outfitters is being taken out on me. Residence knew that by taking away the outfitter tag that it was not going to cost them anything but would cost all other non-resident hunters more money. The people voted to screw the average guy because of there hatred/jealousy toward outfitters that are probaly a resident of montana. I don't think the people are against out of state hunters but I don't feel I should foot the bill for everyone wanting to be mean to outfitters.

Rattler I don't think we will agree on the guys staying at the motel. The non-resident guys that will give $500 or $600 a week to stay in a motel room will be the guys paying the tresspass fees to hunt. In my experience/opinion the guys hunting the public ground are to cheap to pay to stay in the hotel or a tresspass fee. Maybe thats only with the group of guys I know and have hunted with. I think you will find the hotels alot more vacant in 2011. It will be interesting to see.
