Missouri Nonresident tag jump again.

[mdmitchell]

My home state of Arkansas did the same. Cut non residents to one turkey and charge $300+. Missouri is following our lead. Both states already had a one turkey limit for the first week.

It's terrible for hunters and isn't backed by any research or data. States and their resident hunters have got to chill out a bit on taking away hunter opportunities.

90% of non resident hunters are hunting public in these states. Which means they're cramming into limited space.  If non resident pressure was spread out, it wouldn't be quite the issue.

As someone who has seen YouTube blow up the public in my state, I'm praying for changes to delay the non resident start or limit tags.

Limited resource, high demand.

Reciprocity; I wish WI, MN, and what ever state that isn't gouging the hunter would take advantage of Reciprocity. You pay the same as the state you come from.  And that includes only taking one bird and less days to do it.
