[quote=Boise]Some years back while living in Idaho I wrote a lengthy letter to the F&G about auctioning off more tags; I see it as a good thing. The trophy mule deer property I wanted to hunt near Fairfield was getting $7500 per deer tag.

The point I attempted to make in my letter was there are many hard core hunters who would love, and be willing to pay, for the opportunity to hunt trophy animals and why shouldn't the state offer the service

If the opportunity you want exists already, why are you so desperate to chit-can the current system MOST Idahoans prefer? By your own admission there were landowner tags available where you wanted to hunt, and you are clearly intimating that you are one of the "hard core" hunters that would "love, and be willing to pay" for tags.

Go ahead and do it then bud, but quit trying to screw to up for everyone else.
