MS requires OOSers to purchase all-game licenses to shoot yotes and hogs. I only hunt waterfowl in MS. Don’t care to hunt deer or turkey (we have enough of those in AL much closer to the house). Coyotes and hogs are invasive species. During the eight hours of daylight I’m NOT hunting ducks while at camp, I wouldnt mind ridding the area of surplus vermin. But I’m not paying a premium to do it. It’s a service to the community!

MDWFP tells me that the law can only be modified by the legislature. As bad as the hog and coyote populations are, I’d like to see that change.

Maybe MDWFP doesn’t think very highly of gumps ... and coonies like me.

Yes it has to be voted on and changed by the legislature, but the legislature listens to and does what the commission does, which, for the most part, listens to the MDWFP feet on the ground want.

As long as you have a dead hog in your possession I doubt they would ever bother you? The problem comes when you have a high-powered rifle during deer season and no dead hog to show for it.

But what do I know.

Fair points all. I’m a MS native and a MS landowner. That wouldn't help me at all if Mr. Greenjeans saw me cruising the lease in a SxS with an AR beside me.

If y’all want some help with hog & yote eradication, write your congressman.

You moved away without buying a lifetime license first?!

It’s a fool that looks for logic in the chambers of the human heart.

Since you own land are capable of claiming dual residency?

For the purpose of buying a lifetime license, no, I don’t believe so. Meaning a nonresident landowner cannot buy a resident lifetime license. You have to be “domiciled” in MS.

However, if you got a resident lifetime license when you were a resident, it’s good even if you move, regardless of whether you’re a landowner or not.

When I left, I was too broke to buy lunch!

I was under the impression that there is a caveat where you didn't need a hunting license (except for the duck) to hunt on land you own.

Only if you are a MS resident landowner, hunting on land titled in your name, as I read it.

If you have a physical 911 address for the land you own and any kind of utilities I would assume you could go get a MSDL and therefore get an MS hunting license.

I think there is a native MS Lifetime hunting lic, If you were born in MS that is.
