Default Land owner tags

I know this topic has been beat to death,, I have 2 questions .. if a person obtains a landowners licence they are only allowed to hunt on lands that they have title to , correct ? The way I understand they can't hunt on land that they rent , or am I wrong ?

They can if the land owner of the land oks it. But remember that a land owners tag is only valid for one quarter section. NOT EVERYTHING he has or rents.

You can only hunt on lands you have title to.. f&w require your orginal tax notice for the land you own and want to hunt. There for rented private land does not qualify for landowners permit, but prov. lease land you hold under a dispostion does allow for landowners permit... because you pay the taxes on the lease land.

When I purchased my landowners tag this year I took in our land tittle tax form with every quarter in 158 that we own. Did not specify one quarter. Have always hunted on it all with my landowners.

Dont believe you are correct... the land owner cannot ok it... the tax notice tells the story to f&w... and yes everything you own can be hunted... sections , townships if you you that much.. all you need to do is produce the tax notice in your name.

The way it was explained to me is that you only have the one quarter to hunt. That was from f&w in lethbridge.

I can't see this being an issue if both names are on the title.

Rented land can be hunted. Right from the wardens mouth when I went and got mine last week. Was told as long as I am the person doing the day to day operation of the land. and as long as the title holder does not apply for it also

your wrong their; your land owner tag is valid for all land you own & not valid in on any land you rent!!! Hense the name of the tag " Landowner"; when you apply take a reciept of your current taxes being paid & your land owner tag will be valid on all parcels; you can be a direct relitive that is involved in the everyday farming of the land & also purchace the tag with a letter from the land owner stating this; If you think differnt call your local F&W & they will fill ya in

Cheers.

I've been waiting for the anti landowner comments, they took longer than I thought they would.

My impression of the hunting communities general view on the Landowner Special Licence system is that it should exist, with legislated limitations.


Right now there are NO LIMITS to the number of Landowner Licences that may be issued in any wmu for Antlered Mule Deer and for Elk in some wmus. Remember, these licences are only issued in Draw wmus.

There needs to be an allocation cap put on Landowner Licences.



The number of Landowner Licences issued is public information, but the government will not release the info.

Landowner Licence numbers issued for each big game species by wmu must be published yearly.



IMO, Landowner Licences should be put into a separate draw code. A Landowner can apply for either a Landowner Licence or a General Draw Licence, but not both.

WB,

Really ? How unfair would that be ? Bet your system would win awards in the rural areas of the province

Why would that be unfair? I agree with a previous poster, no landowner tags for horned game. The draw system is pretty fair for the rest of us.
