I have taken to carrying half a roll of electricians tape in my day pay,notching the tag immediately and attaching it with a bunch of tape wherever... ( Leg on a doe, antler on a buck) Just to avoid any friction. Aint that hard to do as the law asks...
I did however bone an antelope out in the field a couple years ago and pack the meat out in a backpack. In that instance, again to comply, I notched the tag and put it in the bag where 'evidence of sex' was still attached to that part of the carcass. Also took a bunch of digital cam pics with date and time of the kill.
Needless to say, I didn't run into a game warden....
