Title: Nebraska Tags not available!
Post by: Dtrkyman on March 30, 2020, 10:17:31 PM
Anyone hear anything on Nebraska tags, a friend said they were not available and I just logged in to check and it would not let me purchase one.

That's a problem with the system. I know NR that are hunting now.

The season opened the 25th. I doubt they would stop selling permits without an anouncment. Man the rumours you hear now are outrageous.

I saw a guy comment on facebook saying he called game and fish and they will no longer be available to non residents in Nebraska. Could it be a lie ? yes. But there was a whole facebook post on it, and multiple people said the same thing. People keep getting there hopes up thinking they'll be able to go wherever they want and do whatever they want....states are slowly but surely closing. its just the way it is.....hope its a glitch, but I don't think it is.

I have not heard anything, but I would assume that most states stop selling out-of-state tags this season.  Seems like a large unnecessary risk.

Looks like NR can't buy tag for NE but NR land owner can. I know some NR hunting NE now. Season started the 25th

I wouldn't call it unnecessary when you have states like louisianna who literally doubled in infection rates in 2 days. I say that because im right next door, and the border counties have some the highest rates spreading up and out of louisianna. so is traveling a risk at this point...yes it is.

Well I bought my Missouri tags since it's only 18 miles from home to there, hopefully I can get there.  I have over 2000 private acres to hunt.

I've heard its cancelled for Out of State Hunters in Nebraska unless you have already purchased your tags.  Even then out of staters will only be able to hunt private land.  Supposed to be a press release later today.

It's a turkey hunt.  There will be more turkey hunts.

Probably be a good thing for most states if there was no turkey hinging for a year to give the populations a chance to build a bit, and it will definitely be a good thing to stop accidental transport of CV19 in from out of state.

Post by: fallhnt on March 31, 2020, 12:02:36 PM
They were battling for a week on the decision due to economic impact. I'm sure other states will follow. NR land owners can hunt. Glad I enjoy Fall hunting more. Public should be good this year. I may not be hunting my home state as our fat azz governor closed state owned land too. Year of the privileged.  (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200331/d56a95f6ff8aa76c34543899df0ea13a.jpg)

I couldn't agree more with these statements.   I realize people really look forward to traveling to turkey hunt every spring...as do I.   I look forward much more though to seeing my friends and loved ones.   If the only way to slow the spread of this virus is to stay at home...people need to stop taking this so lightly and obey the stay at home orders.  If not for the sake of themselves...then for the sake of the less fortunate person they may accidentally transmit this virus to while traveling.

Honestly and not being an a hole, no state in the country really cares if a hunter boy cots them. This virus is not the norm and I do agree it seems to have gotten out of hand but, it is probably better to over react than under react. It is not descrimination over a turkey hunt cancelled because of a disease. I mean come on, people are dying.

I'm holding a NE tag and a KS tag.  Not gonna use either of them...not worth it to me.

Unless things have substantially changed for the better by Mid May...will re-evalaute then.

Technically if you come from a place considered a hot area like Louisiana or New York you are supposed to be under quarantine for 14 days. The rest of the state has a stay at home order and many municipalities are adopting laws to make it a class c misdemeanor if they catch you out doing  you shouldnt be.

I hunt private on both sides of Neb/ KS line and have 1 tag for each state in hand- typically buy additional tags as I harvest.  Got the email from Neb this am as I'm sure many of you did.  Had planned to head out that way April 13 th.....we'll see what happens over the next 6 weeks.  Having a hard time justifying the travel to other states w the current situation.  Nice to read they're offering a refund.

As for KS, I talked w an information officer this am and he said it's still on as scheduled but that decisions are being made day by day.  For example, there's already a mandatory 14 day quarantine if you're coming from Colorado... whether you're a resident or not.  Can't help but think that will be the new normal for most states out here even if they allow hunting.

Nah - again under the KS will do anything for a buck file...

https://khap2.kdhe.state.ks.us/NewsRelease/PDFs/3-27-20%20travel.pdf

I can come from CO to KS and mosey around as I see fit.  If someone from KS comes to CO they have to Self-Quarantine for 14 days...makes a lot of sense.

I sure hope these posts are meant to read sarcastically. 

I had a couple tentative plans to travel and hunt...  In state and out.  I am not even distantly considering those plans currently.

It is not turkey hunting in and of itself that can potentially spread the infection, it is getting supplies, gas, food, etc...  And the contact you come in with other people doing so.

Heck, as far as we know, you could get and spread the disease ordering calls and/or ammunition.  The virus can stay viable on hard and soft surfaces for up to days....  And so far as I can tell, hunters often seem to have a more blasé attitude about the seriousness and spreading of this infection.

JUST ONE PERSON BRINGING THE VIRUS INTO OR OUT OF AN AREA, could cause catastrophic health and economic consequences.

Now, if someone can hunt safely within their own area, more power to them.  I hope they are successful and safe.  It appears absurdly infantile to have an attitude that "If I can't go, then nobody should."

AND remember...  The states and areas responsible enough to limit out of area tags are losing, NOT gaining revenue in doing this.

I completely agree that folks should be allowed to hunt safely in their own area.  But how do we define what "their own area" is?  Is it a 20 minute drive from the house?  One hour?  Three hours?  That's where we start getting into shades of gray.   ???

That is a good question, and one reason that I would not argue with a decision to close all seasons everywhere.

For me personally, it is leaving the house and being able to go to hunt an area with the reasonable expectation of NOT having to come into any contact with anyone for any reason without having to spend the night anywhere to hunt.

Gas is all local and gloves are used, and food/lunch comes from my own home (which I would have to eat anyways).

I do generally hunt some public ground, and this season, I am not...   

On the other side of that coin, people should get outside (with social distancing), and fresh air and activity is good for us.

Stopped short?  She said don't come.  Not absolutely, yet. 

As someone who has hunted the sane property with friends since 2004, it pains me to not go this year.  But I also know that my short term pain of not going pales in comparison to the alternative of unknowingly infecting my KS friends.  I've got to suck it up and look forward to 2021.  Which we all should.

I just found it interesting that Kansas, at least for now, is not being quite as restrictive on non residents as Nebraska.  If you go to the KDWP website tonight you can buy a non-resident license. (I'm not saying that is what anyone SHOULD do.)  But this stuff is all changing on a daily basis.  Heck by this time next week, who knows what restrictions might be in place?  I hope everyone stays safe, whether hunting or not!

You can buy a nonresident license but they haven't sold nonresident turkey permits online for a couple years.

You can buy KS turkey permits online, have been for many years...

I'll be submitting my 2020 on-line turkey tags for a refund as soon as the process is outlined...

Nebraska just requires the tags be mailed back for the refund...

At least Nebraska mentioned potential refunds.  I've got a couple Wisconsin tags that look like they'll be a donation to the DNR this year.

I've got an Illinois tag, as well as my wife, for a special hunt area. Good ol JB owes me for 2 tags. Last I heard was they are looking into how to issue refunds. I'll believe it when I see it. This was the first time I ever drew a Special Hunt Area. Usually just a regular county permit. Lesson learned I guess.

It's easy,they mail a refund check. However, they have people up in arms with the typical BS. I will get mine eather by....
1. They don't draw next year and we can hunt on our permits.
2. They mail a refund.
3. I get a charge back on my CC. I'll turn the CC company loose on them.
4. I will call the state attorney,just to be an azz.
I didn't vote for the Fat Bastard and I don't like his appointed, do nothing minion DNR director, who also worked for the Obama administration. She sent out a memo stating the no refund policy.  Good, she can read,the state was open when I payed to draw. They closed,not my problem. Your not keeping my money. It's the principal,when you live in a chit hole state like this.

Kansas Walmart's liscensing machines are like McDonalds ice cream machines, they're always conveniently "broken" because some one doesn't want/know how to do their job. Had the one kid in the sporting goods department locally to me tell me he told customers for a month that it was "broken" because he hadn't been trained how to do it yet.

Oh don't get me going on people at Walmart at the hunting counter, I was in our local store one day and this dude comes in looking for ammo for his .223 he clearly knew very little about firearms. The kid behind the counter looked and said there is no .223 but that there was .222 and it would work just the same, the buyer was about to get them and I went off the wall, told the kid to get the manager and get him NOW. The manager comes up and asks me what the problem was and I told him that he had to get that kid out of that department before he killed somebody and then went on to tell him exactly what transpired. The manager looks at the the buyer who was surprisingly still standing there and asks the guy if what I had told him was true which he confirmed it was. The manager looks at the kid and tells he got back to the work room and get his stuff that he was fired. I did not want to see the kid lose his job, I just wanted him transferred to linens or somewhere he would not get somebody killed.

I will boycott any state that bans non-residents. If they ban they should ban ALL HUNTERS, residents too. I will cross those states off my vacation plans also. It is DISCRIMINATION of the worst kind. They take our money when it is politically expedient to them. Time to fight back.  :z-twocents:

I nominate this poster and post for moron of the year award!!!  I mean come on, seriously!!!  Think about others you may come in contact with instead of just thinking about yourself!!!  It's hunting, a sport, a hobby; life is more important than all of these!

I have not heard anything, but I would assume that most states stop selling out-of-state tags this season.  Seems like a large unnecessary risk.
I wouldn't call it unnecessary when you have states like louisianna who literally doubled in infection rates in 2 days. I say that because im right next door, and the border counties have some the highest rates spreading up and out of louisianna. so is traveling a risk at this point...yes it is.
Its new orleans man. The month after mardi gras, when people from all over the world come and drink out of each others hand grenades and vomit on each other. A lot worse stuff to catch in Nola. Lol
correct. the urinal of the country. always has been...always will be.

Newsflash life isnt fair
Technically if you come from a place considered a hot area like Louisiana or New York you are supposed to be under quarantine for 14 days. The rest of the state has a stay at home order and many municipalities are adopting laws to make it a class c misdemeanor if they catch you out doing  you shouldnt be.
yes you are....unfortunately where I live in Mississippi most south louisianna folks hunt in Mississippi. 50% of deer leases in my neck of the woods are purely la residents, and to find a camp or club without a la member is nearly impossible. Guess where all those guys are right now...bugging out at their Mississippi deer camps when they are supposed to be home in la.

Just some info 35,000 people died of the flu this year, over 50,000 in car accidents, no guarantees in life. I wonder how much normal we will have after all this is over? One other point, how many freedoms will we have left?

Look around at how the sheep are herding up. Hell, a better question is how many freedoms do people even care about??

Seems nobody cares about being free, as long as they feel protected inside their homes they good.

Seems 350M people are fine being told to sit and stay, over something affecting not even a full % of people, killing a smaller percentage OF that percent, and even if those dying it seems 75% already had one foot in the grave!

Not true about senior citizens, while they tend to develop more serious symptoms, many will recover with treatment. The statistics do show that most that succumb are overweight and/or diabetic.

39.8% of adults aged 20 and over were obese (including 7.6% with severe obesity) and that another 31.8% were overweight.

About 10% have type 2 Diabetes.

the statistics show that most deaths are older people period reguardless of the underlying conditions. Yes the underlying conditions seems to seal the deal.....doesn't justify the trying to spread the virus around because you read a statistic that "some" older people have recovered from it.

Good to see some common sense on this subject!  My opinion, it's just not worth the gamble to get it, spread it or be a carrier to someone else.
