ORIGINAL: Washington Hunter

Perhaps I should have been more specific in my request.

By most influential I meant the person or persons who have the most influence when it comes to the politics related to our sport, the big things that are happening in the industry, etc.

Joe Blow Hunting Buddy doesn't have any real influence as far as that goes. Sure, he can step up to the plate and put in some elbow grease and become influential, but 99% of people won't do that.

The people reading/responding on this forum are in the same boat. Granted, we've all got a wealth of information to share, but how is that helping our sport in Washington (DC) and in the industry in general?
