Default RE: are we over regulated as bow hunter's?

I can't believe that this continues like ground hog day. Hunter education for starting hunters is a good idea. Maybe a one time class before you get that first license to drill in the ethics and need to practice. To require a mandatory proficiency test even at five bucks is a waste of time and just creates more regulation by government that is a waste of money and another way to keep track of the evil hunters out there. You guys know that most people can hit a pie plate at 20-30-40-50 in the first few hours with a well tuned bow and the shop can tune it for you. That has nothing to do with what you do at first light with an animal coming in on you. I have seen groups of hunters open up on a herd of elk with rifles and they could shoot just fine. So what mandatory national proficiency test is going to keep these road hunting pigs out of the woods?
