According to DWR Game Management Chief Dwight Bunnell, this decision culminates several years ofintense efforts to balance biological factors with public needs and desires in an program. The two driving forces for the possible changes are: the number of hunters encountered in the field during the rifle deer hunt and the number and size of deer seen while Some hunters have hunting. expressed concern that opening weekend hunter pressure is too great, that there are too many hunters. Some say they want to see more big deer. Others are Hunters are a quite satisfied. diverse group. Opinions vary as widely as the number of individuals who hunt Bunnell feels the big question is how strongly hunters feel about these questions. To answer that, researchers at Utah State University were called in to study deer hunter opinions. Results of that study will be a significant consideration to the Board when they meet in August Three meetings are scheduled: August 12, 8:30 a.m., Natural Resources Auditorium, 1636 West North Temple, Salt Lake City. USU researchers will brief the Board on survey results. Meeting is open to the public, but public comments will not be taken. August 19, 1 p.m., Salt Palaces Little Theater. Public meeting with comments accepted. USU researchers will present survey findings to Board and public. August 20, 9 a.m., Wildlife Resources Auditorium, 1596 West North Temple, Salt Lake City. Board executive session, public is welcome, but no input will be taken. Three specific alternatives under consideration are retaining the current diversified hunting system; adopting a choose your hunt system where hunters would select rifle, archery or muzzle-loadseason; and splitting the rifle hunt into two shorter seasons and a hunter would pick one of the two. Other options include: 1) opening the rifle deer hunt on a Wednesday and lengthening the season for three weeks; 2) moving the Provo. g er HUNTER'S DELIGHT PHONE ,7 646-31- 94 muzzle-load- er season to September, the archery deer and elk hunts with one deer per hunter (buck or doe, not both); and a management plan that is a combi3) combining nation of all of the above. One final change the Board iB considering is separating the actual deer tag from the big game and combination hunting licenses. This would allow a hunter to buy a genera hunting license then purchase (or apply for) hunting permits and tags of hisher choice. For example, a baric hunting license would be sold; then permits or tags for desired hunts would be purchased separately. A hunter would not automatically be issued a rifle deer tag but could purchase it if desired. Or, they could purchase just an antlerless permit, an elk permit or an archery permit, etc., without the rifle tag. All of these factors are being addressed by the USU study and will be considered by the Board on August 20. Pricing options for possible license restructuring will be included as well. Bunnell concludes that all of the pieces of information will be in place The for the August derisions. diversity of hunter opinions is being explored throughout the study. That, combined with public input and the biological considerations, will put the Board in a good position to make these decisions. If changes are made, they will not take place until 1992 at the earliest Licensing changes will probably not be in place until 1993.
