No more going to the checkin station in Maryland

[fabsroman]

Why not do it the way Maryland takes care of the HIP permit. The person selling you your license asks if you did any deer hunting last year and notes the answer on your license. If the answer is the affirmative, then they ask how many bucks and how many points, and how many does. The responses get recorded into the state system and it is noted on the hunter's license that he did complete the check in procedure.

Hell, you can have both systems in place (i.e., one to report deer kills throughout the season and another to report them when you get your license), and make it mandatory to do both. Once a computerized system is put in place, it makes collecting information a heck of a lot easier.
