Does someone know the purpose of the new super sports license?

This is taken directly from the DNR HSOforum

Super Sports Individual - Code 142

Description:

Super sports license includes fishing,small game, state trout, waterfowl and pheasant stamps. Choice of firearm,archery or muzzleloader deer license after August 1. The price of this license is more than if purchasing the included licenses individually.

Buy license online

Hunting regulations

Fee:

$ 99.00

It says "The price of this license is more than if purchasing the included licenses individually. "

Why would anyone buy it if it costs more than if you buy them seperately?

What is the benefit?

I can see going to a place and asking for the super sports license instead of listing everything out you want to purchase, and if you forget to get a stamp or endorsement then you pay extra to the place you bought it from anyway.

Plus more revenue for conservation actions.

A) I think there is a typo.

B) it includes stamps and licenses, so it should be no surprise that it costs more than just the licenses.

In another spot is says it includes, "Individual angling includes trout/salmon stamp; Small game includes pheasant and waterfowl stamps and one deer tag for the archery, firearm or muzzleloader season"

So that adds in the trout stamp. Not sure if that makes much difference. Does it include the federal waterfowl stamp or just the state?

$30 deer license

$31.50 sports license (small game and fish)

$7.50 pheasant stamp

??? trout stamp

$7.50 waterfowl stamp

anything else?

edit: Looks like it isn't a typo and we pay for the convenience of buying the package instead of buying separately.

Sports license is $38. Also the Super sports does not include your federal stamp. Other that that it is still more expensive than buying all licenses seperatly. Seems like a scam to me.

I'm not even sure it would be legal for them to charge more than face value. I can see it being more convenient for fewer trips during the year, but then charge face value and be done with it.

Everywhere I look it shows differing dollar amounts for things. The legislature garbage shows 92.50 for super sports, the DNR site says $99.00. Jeepers.

Legislature link, note is says signed by the gov on the bottom: https://www.revisor.leg.state.mn.us/laws/?id=277&year=2012&type=0

DNR site: http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/licenses/hunting/index.html?type=hunting
