I realize it's not a perfect solution and that the government is not likely to be keen on more programs to administer. But especially with talk of more tags going to draw, there should be some mechanism that protects or bolsters opportunities for the truly dedicated.

This is a "tongue in cheek" funny comment..... right?
Once we start tiering hunting tags/seasons/etc. based on the "worthiness" of the hunter we have lost our way
....once you are eligible to hunt you may do so....
Because someone grew up in the mountains and knows their area are they more worthy of hunting sheep than a farm kid from the prairies?
Maybe the mountain men should learn some crop science before they can hunt white tail on farm land?
