RE: We are so unlucky .. (photo's)
Bailsuk, I would get as many people as you can into archery. They don't have to necessarily hunt, but they would at least be familiar with the sport. You might not see the ripple effect, but your kids might. Word of mouth is a powerful thing. Also, get some monetary numbers from records on the internet to show how much hunting can positively impact the economy. Money talks! They can't deny the numbers, or the logic, to allow bow hunting if they already allow rifle hunting.
Have you considered hunting in France? I would never suggest this but I saw Tom Nelson from Limbsavers show hunting there for deer with archery equipment. I don't know the cost, but I'd check out areas that are close, relatively, France, Germany, Scandanavian countries, etc.
Does the archeryban also cover the area of Scotland, or are they treated separately? If not, the Scottish highlands would be an awesome place to hunt.
Just a few thoughts.
