I do not agree with the proposed changes to the moose draw. It seems to penalize groups that apply in areas where tags are readily available to get and are willing to travel for the opportunity to hunt. Hunters that are unwilling to travel and want to use there "deer" camp for moose and complain about no tags also apply where there is little to no chance of success. I have a moose season at home but realized the chance of getting a tag is hard so we travel to where tags are available on our group size.
The transfer of tags needs to be open as for a young hunting group like ours ( everyone under 30 ) we don't know if we can go due to births and child health up till the day we leave. Also students won't know if they can leave till school year has started. Some years this is the unfortunate truth. There are some that have the need for transfer. This transfer is penalizes younger generation from hunting and lost opportunities to hunt. This was over looked due to the fact most moose hunters are 40+ years of age.
