[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2414023, member: 313"] I hate to say it but .......... most of the discourteous, unethical or illegal activity that I have witnessed over the years has been by locals (residents) who think that the rules don't apply to them. I hunt out of state all the time. I make it my business to know the relevant laws of the state and to carefully comply. I try to be a good steward of the land that has hosted my hunt, public or private. Conversations with local hunters has often revealed how some "hunters" habitually skirt the laws or disregard regulations in an effort to take game. The failure to tag game, with the intention of reusing the tag in the future, does not seem uncommon. IME, non-residents seem MORE likely to play by the rules whether they are printed or just normal ethical standards. Residents often know their way around the neighborhood, if you know what I mean. Just my observations. [/QUOTE]
