[QUOTE="scn, post: 5828236, member: 1859"] When the check in system at least partially worked, hunters got their kill tag when they purchased a license. That license had to be attached to the deer as it went to the closest physical check in station. When the hunter completed the check in, they received their next tag. There was no printing off of tags by the hunter. If they were checked with deer hunting weapons and no valid kill tag, it was a ticket. When the Lifetime licenses started, that necessitated kill tags being mailed. There was expense involved. And, it any hunter lost their kill tag, they had to go through the Regional office to get another one. It wasn't a perfect system by any means, but, there were some controls. The biological side of the agency got tired of having to deal with the replacing of kill tags and some other issues surrounding the system. All of a sudden, if you had a printer, you could print yourself as many kill tags as you wanted. At that point, all controls went out the window and TWRA went to an honor system. [/QUOTE]
