If this passes there will be unintended consequences, and a whole new set of complaints from those that don't get tags.
-How will leftovers or returned tags be reallocated? 2nd drawing? Will second tag purchases still be an option after August 1?
-Will this be integrated with the controlled hunt drawing in May and prevent NR from applying for both general, and controlled seasons?
-Will there be wait periods for successful applicants? Meaning that even lucky NRs will not be able to get a tag every year. Successful controlled hunt drawing applicants currently have to wait a year before applying again.
-How will this affect outfitter tag allocations? The bill states "all" NR tags have to be allocated by drawing.
If I was a NR I would prefer that they improve the current system rather than go to a draw. Only allow purchasing for immediate family; Prevent the use of multiple devices; make all sales happen through the same portal (online); don't allow outfitters to purchase tags from the general OTC tag pool.
