I was very surprised at some questions and responses from legislators after hours of one sided testimony via Sen Case, One Shot members, and members of Wyoming Wildlife and Women's Foundations(who want tags for themselves). This most likely came about because Joint TRW Chairman Rep Jim Allen, a strong One Shot supporter, met Buzz and I in the meeting room before the start. Needless to say he recognized our names!! I must say he was ready for us by stacking the room in case we showed.
In all four sportsman spoke out against set aside licenses based mostly on equal access to wildlife. Some of our legislators get it, most don't. One thing for sure, the One Shot's troubles have just begun. Either outcome on this issue doesn't effect the Women's Foundation, who would like a set of 80 tags for themselves, because the areas they hunt are 100% draw.
Surprisingly, two legislators feel set aside tags in statute for two private exclusive groups, may violate the special legislation clause of the Wyoming Constitution.
Stay tuned...
