It is my impression that they have not pushed or questioned SRD to consider all the other options rather than just decreasing resident tags or pushing for more draw only hunts. These other options include decreasing outfitter/NR tags and looking into the landowner allocations before slapping residents with decreased opportunity.
Also, the AFGA would be the perfect place to push for statisical transparency of these numbers so that the members would see what we are dealing with. Spreadsheets of resident draw stats, landowner tags and NR/outfitter tags per WMU would be a nice start. Are these #'s a secret?
It is nice to see their stance on the S.Sask Regional Plan through their letter to the Premier...did they get a reply? I wonder what else they have planned?
