[QUOTE="jimss, post: 2234348, member: 66919"] Another negative that will come out if 90/10 passes in Wyo as the same thing will likely happen in Colorado. You can bet that Colo residents are going to complain when up to 35% of limited deer, elk, and antelope tags are issued to nonres. The real losers are the nonres! I'm a Colo res and don't support this in Wyo just as I don't support it in my home state of Colo. It really bums me out that nonres hunters have applied for tags and paid high pref pt fees for up to 25+ years and are screwed! Not only that but nonres support local community revenues. Here in Colo small off the grid towns like Craig and Meeker in NW Colo get an incredible amount of revenue each year from nonres. The same is true in small towns in Wyo. There are a lot of nonres that live in states where there are very few big game species options other than whitetails. 90/10 will cut their opportunity in 1/2. Young hunters just starting out may never catch up applying and paying high $ pref pt fees for the opportunity to hunt muledeer, elk, and antelope. Wyo residents have the opportunity to draw and hunt with up to 12 big game tags/year. Wyo res can also hunt elk and deer each and every year in general units. You want to talk about opportunity....Wyo res have plenty! If they don't fill their freezer there is something definitely wrong! Anyway, there are a number of different options that the Task Force probably haven't even discussed yet that should be considered before cutting 1/2 of the nonres high demand limited tags with 90/10!
