[QUOTE="gonehuntingagain, post: 42322, member: 1206"] I understand the complaints about the prices of out of state tags - Idaho is really high in that respect - so high that the non resident quota of tags doesn't always sell out. The complaint is that the non resident tag quota is a form of discrimination, and in violation of the interstate commerce clause of the Constitution. It is argued that the State is stopping interstate commerce by limiting the number of non resident hunters. In the Wyoming lawsuit, one of the arguments was that the hunter claimed he planned to sell the inedible portions of his big game across state lines and internationally, thus limiting interstate commerce (nevermind that the hunter must actually harvest an animal for all of this to happen [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] ).([url]http://espn.go.com/outdoors/conservation/news/2003/0707/1577581.html[/url]) Pricing issues aside, if a judge actually bought this argument, then the way all of us hunt in our home state will drastically change - and not for the better. [url="http://espn.go.com/outdoors/conservation/news/2004/1102/1914830.html"]Here[/url] is an article about the appeal to the 9th circuit court. Nevada is really screwed since all of the big game tags have a quota, not just to out of state hunters. [/QUOTE]
