Once again, have I shot traditional before - No.

So, do i know my limits? Yes. Right now I have no business being in the field. By then if I cant hit acuratley beyond 10 yrds, then my limit will be....10 yds.

My limit on compound is 30. Why you might ask am I going traditional when I cant hit beyond 30, I just dont practice past 30. At my last house, if I shot from past 30 yds, I was in the middle of the front yard shooting past the house, garage and nearly to the alley. I didnt like the restricted view of someone stepping into the shooting lane, so I didnt make it available.

As for shooting a doe first, not to my understanding. There are certain hunts available where this is the case.

Oh, and the McAlister hunt is ONLY for traditionalists??? My left foot.

Id bet 25% (or more) of those selected have never hunted recurve before. I have a friend that drew in last yr, borrowed a bow 1 wk later, and hunted w/ it there. He drew in again this yr w/ his son who has never recurve hunted.

If this is only for traditional hunters, then how in the hell are all the rifle hunts taken up? If you hunt (own) a compound, you shouldnt be entering the rifle hunts? Is this what your saying? if so, maybe i do like your thinking on this. get yourself on the commission and make these changes. Ill sell my bow in a second if it means ill get a rifle hunt category. There is no way the commision can enforce that.
