huntingseason open

up at four, home at dark.

The season, the licence and the freezer. No trophy and nothing in crosshairs -- the early start, the empty tag, the food, the funding, and the rule that matters.

  1. HUNTERS PAY FOR CONSERVATION
  2. UP AT FOUR, HOME AT DARK
  3. KNOW YOUR TARGET
  4. FILL THE FREEZER
  5. TAG SOUP

Two of these are not jokes. Licence fees and excise taxes on equipment are the largest single source of wildlife conservation funding in the United States, and the fourth rule is the one that matters.
