Great idea for veterans (me), but I think the DNR would object due to it cutting into their revenue.

HOLY COW.....no NDSM is even required.....

That could be a helluva savings for alot of folks....instead of 80 some odd bucks a year....just one shot.

Even old farts would benefit....cheaper than a seniors license I would think.

Wow....

I would love to get my licenses like that but, I have to wonder how much that would impact our fisheries and wildlife management. Seems like it would be a huge loss of revenue. Remember, we pay for our public outdoor privlidges thru those licenses. As much as alot of folks complain about certain aspects of our outdoor programs, we have the best in the country that I have found. I'm a veteran and would benefit but at what cost? I think it's the proper sentiment applied in the wrong place. JMHO.
