A few years back I was hoping to go ahead and finally bite the bullet and spend some big bucks to buy my lifetime hunting license. At that point, I think that the cost was a little more than $1100 per person and it included hunting and fishing. I had actually been saving and i was ready to do this...
When I made the call to ask where I could go to purchase the license, I was told that Mitch had just recently done away with the program and that the lifetime hunting licenses were no longer available for purchase but of course, for those who had already purchased theirs, it would remain in effect...
You cannot imagine how disappointed I was to hear this. In fact, it had just occurred less than two weeks prior to my inquiry. So, I was extremely upset for a couple reasons.... First and foremost, I was upset with myself for waiting so long to get this done because like I said, it had gone away just weeks prior... Then I was mad because I was all over Mitch and excited to have him as our Governor. I had even placed bets with friends when it the elections had rolled around... I was a huge fan of Mitch...
I am still a big fan of Mitch and I am happy with the job that he is doing. It makes sense to me now why he would have done away with the lifetime licenses sales because ultimately the state will receive more revenue from individual sales... It was just unfortunate for me that I had waited so long...
I am curious.... Is it reasonable to think that the lifetime hunting license sales will ever occur again? If it did, I would be the first in line to take advantage of it.
Just curious to see what others may think...
Thanks for your thoughts....
Go get the big one!
