Who is "they" and what are they doing? Either you didn't understand my post or I'm not understanding your reply.
I'm not talking about game wardens, conservation officers, etc. I'm talking about national hunting organizations/clubs that many of us have joined over the years.
Isack Walton League, Indiana Bowhunters Association, Indiana Deer Hunters Association, and IDNR are the ones I thought you were talking about. I don't know what more THEY could do beyond what they were and still are.
Don't know about the larger national groups, sorry for the confusion. If you are a member perhaps that would be a good question to ask them.
I'm a member of several national organizations and find myself reading more articles in their mags about what state and federal officials are doing in state x to protecthunting rather thanreading about what the club I'm paying my dues to every year has done. My point is I'd like to see the organizations step up and stand on the front lines with the game wardens, conservation officers, etc. instead of just reporting about it.
