Demand is not going to decrease and I agree that we could easily double the fees and every tag would sell.
The special WY NR fee worked for the outfitters for a while, but in the scheme of NR hunting, its not even a proper rounding error in the cost. That's why WOGA is trying to get a set aside, the special fee prices are being paid by a lot more DIY folks than outfitted clients.
Don't try to tell me otherwise, I apply and hunt 3-6 states a year. Paying a couple hundred more for the one thing you absolutely have to obtain to hunt, isn't even close to a game changer.
Factor in food, fuel, rifles, ATV's, trucks, spotting scopes, ammo, binoculars, tents, sleeping bags, GPS, and the literal mountain of other crap we buy to spend a month hunting. Literally chump change to spend a couple hundred more for a tag, not even worth a second thought.
