The breakdown is literally basic math / word problem. So if it seems inflated or misrepresented you can take that up with the indian statisticians, its all their numbers lol. As I see it either the indians are blowing smoke and just having a pissing contest with Stitt or Stitt made a good business decision for the state. So either way its no skin off my nose. Also as a card carrying cherokee let me clue you in on a few things, at least as I know them. Your right if I stay on tribal land I don't need a hunting license; I've taken advantage of that a time or two to fill freezers. After you leave tribal land however it can get hairy from there and you wont find many shops willing to process your deer or mount your buck without a tag. I'm sure this arrangement is fine for some but definitely limits you. Let me tell ya its not a fun talk with the GW "I swear i took this spike on tribal land over yonder, i dont need a tag" goes over like a fart in church. Its just more convenient to shill out $72 and not worry about it. Even better to get your lifetime and really not worry about it. It all goes to conservation anyways, always kinda proud of that.Now when they started this free hunting license thing that's great, but its not automatic that every tribal member got one. You had to apply for it and just like with all other government bodies its a process. I am sure there are a lot of tribal members that dont need it or didnt bother with it BECAUSE they already have a lifetime license or hunt on tribal land. But for like my son he got a free license for the year and a couple free tags, who can be mad about that? This year he's getting his lifetime for christmas so no worries.</blockquote>
