Missouri Nonresident tag jump again.

[Bottomland OG]

FYI nonresident disabled Vets with a rating of 60% or better, can buy tags at the resident price. And you will get two tags..

Not arguing but do you know this to be a fact? I read where as of 2026 non resident disabled vets are to pay full price? I read this on mdc website so is it a mis print?

The single bird would be less of a deal if the price reflected the drop in limit and opportunity, but it is actually opposite with the price increase.

The Commission recognizes the contributions and sacrifices made by veterans and active duty military and has approved several permit exemptions and low cost permits for active duty military and veterans. This includes:

Any honorably discharged resident or nonresident veteran having a service-related disability of 60% or greater or who was a prisoner of war during military service may hunt (but not trap) wildlife — except black bears, deer, elk, and turkeys — without a permit but must carry a certified statement of eligibility from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Any member of the U.S. military currently assigned as a patient to a Warrior Transition Brigade, Warrior Transition Unit, or a military medical center may hunt (but not trap) wildlife — except black bears, deer, elk, and turkeys — without a permit but must carry orders showing such assignment. However:
A Missouri Migratory Bird Hunting Permit is required to hunt waterfowl, snipe, doves, woodcock, and rails.
A Federal Duck Stamp is required to hunt waterfowl.
A Conservation Order Permit is required to hunt light geese during the Conservation Order.
Any honorably discharged military veteran having a service-related disability of 60% or greater; or who was a prisoner of war; or currently assigned as a patient to a Warrior Transition Brigade, Warrior Transition Unit or a military medical center may receive permits at resident prices.  The Warrior Transition Unit/Brigade would include programs such as the Wounded Warrior Program.
Active duty military and their families stationed in Missouri qualify for resident permits, and resident active duty military and their immediate family stationed out of state qualify for Missouri resident permits.
If an individual bought a Missouri hunting, fishing, or trapping permit and then couldn't use it for the full valid season because they were called to military duty out of state, they qualify for a free reinstatement of the permit privilege upon their return.
Residents of Missouri who are currently, or have in the previous twelve (12) months, been mobilized and serving on full-time active military duty in either the National Guard (in Federal Status) or Reserve forces of the United States can hunt small game, fish, and trap with a low-cost permit.
Veterans are also encouraged to contact one of Missouri's four trout parks for these free fishing events specifically for service men and women:

I did talk to a conservation officer a couple weeks back on the limit subject and he said the only way a non resident can kill more than one is if they are a land owner "no exceptions".

Upon further reading , according to the Turkey regs, The limit is based on type of permit . Still confuses me , but I am simple minded. I would talk to someone about it to clarify before shooting 2.....Joe

looks like I am a little slow typing.....

It's also confusing to me. To be honest I think a lot of the people working for mdc are confused too. I am a non resident land owner but I like hunting public lands. I have spoke with 3 different people and can't seem to get a straight answer if I can kill 2 birds on a normal non res license if one bird is taken on my property.
