Why do we pay more for archery? Just because we choose to use a bow, rifle hunters don't pay extra to use a gun. Why is that?
Answer:
Many years ago, the bow hunters association made a request that IDFG create an archery stamp and require those who participate in archery only hunts to purchase the archery stamp. The Idaho stamp program was canceled in 1998 after all IDFG licenses, tags and permits became electronic. Those items that used to be stamps were converted to permits or validations on licenses.
