Would still be a bargain at twice the price... JMO. Put a calculator to it and figure out what it costs/day, per season... including fishing and stuff... Now, that should get some debate. I'm headed up to the shop. I'll check in after dinner. BTW, That is my honest opinion. I have a few more things I like to do (my wife calls them hobbies  ) that cost waaaaaay more. There ya go.

With the slow economy, seems like a bad time for anything to go up.

I feel the price of the Sportsman license is fair, considering everything that goes along with it.

I'm not talking about other states. I'm speaking only for TN. What we get to do for an entire year for $136 bucks is cheap.

I sure wish that price included such areas like the TNWRs and LBL. I know it's not possible to add them in but just sayin'....

The point? Then point is that you think that it is a bargain to hunt in TN. I personally think its outrageous. I moved here from another state (NC) and I could buy 3 sportsman licenses there at 40 bucks apiece for what one will cost here. Add the annual saltwater priviledge to that and their $55. Just from my brief time here, and travels to west and east tn, I think that NC has more deer as far as overall numbers from what I've seen, and to some extent small game also.
Now before I get jumped by every native Tennessean on here, I understand that I would probably feel different if I had been born and raised here OR came from a state with higher prices. Tn offers more freshwater fishing opportunities, but NC has saltwater fishing. Tn has the Miss flyway and NC has the Atlantic(it sucks:)). TWRA is separate from the state, NCWRC is part of the state. I really can't complain about either, but both do have their faults. And I do somewhat understand the reasoning behind the high price.
I'm in no way bashing this state, i'm just trying to give a different perspective of the license price. You did mention wanting some debate, and I feel that without something to compare it to, you have nothing to debate for or against.
