Those attending last week's meeting of the state Fish and Game Council got to see the future of buying hunting and fishing licenses in New Jersey. To George Howard, the future appeared more functional than futuristic.

Howard, conservation director of the New Jersey Federation of Sportsmen's Clubs, said the so-called "point-of-sale" (POS) unit presented at the council meeting "looked like a cross between an adding machine and a computer."

Oh man... their gonna be selling unlimited doe permits like crazy!!!

 

[bob825]

it should make it easy and faster to get your licenses and permits. maybe more places will have a machine sense the owners will not have to fill out paper work

Great. Now all we need is the same sort of technology for game checking!

Instead of having to drive half way across a county to find out that (a) the place is closed or (b) "they're wrong, we don't check deer any more", why can't I just go back where I got my license and fill in a form, or scan my license, or stand with my deer in front of a cheap digital camera (like a security camera) to see that its me, its my license, its my deer, now give me the *&&%$*^% posession seal and let me go home!!!!

So Bob, How are those anger management classes working out?

Jersey Bob is right...it is frustrating when a check station is closed. Opening spring gobbler this year the check station was closed. So I had to drive my turkey all the way up to Stokes Sporting goods in Sussex county.
