I just wanted to see how many of you guys have your lifetime hunting or fishing license...My dad gave me my Lifetime Hunting license for Christmas.....Man was i happy......

I have mine in WV .. but not VA ..

VA is only for Small Game.. of course if you are into Small game that is a great thing.. but if you hunt Deer, Bear and Turkey only like me then I still have to buy it every year anyway..

WVBOY - do you have to buy the license itself every year or just the tags for big game if you have a lifetime? I guess that only saves about $12 a year anyway. I'm thinking about doing it - more for convenience sake.

I'm not exactly sure but I was just looking at my license and I have a seperate Big Game License it looks like to me.. so I'm guessing you still have to buy that every year, plus your Archery, National Forest, MuzzleLoader etc depending on what you want to have.. so if I'm going to still have to do that every year then it's not worth the up front money to me to buy the lifetime small game.. but like I said for some it would be I guess .. all the small game hunters out there...

WV Lifetime includes Big game and National Forest .. except for Bear and it only cost me $7 a year to purchase the Bear Damage Stamp.. and I usually also get an extra Buck stamp as well.. I was lucky enough to buy it while I was still a resident there as well for $400 not sure how much they cost now .. now it cost me only the cost of stamps when I go back to hunt every year as opposed to $120 for an out of state license every year..
