RE: Virginia Dog Hunting
I hope all of you don't take your frustrations out on all hound hunters. We are not all like the so called hound hunters that have been stirring so much on the different web sites!
Many of us are ethical responsible hunters and houndsman that know there are issues that need to be looked at because of some rouges among us that are making ALL hunters look bad!
Everyone needs to contact their House of Delegate members TODAY! Ask them to OPPOSE - VOTE NO on House bill #1352 (Restructure DGIF Board) EVEN IF THEY DID RECIEVE MANEY FROM CSA PAC/ VA Hunting Dog Alliance for their campain!
This is the worst thought out bill I have ever seen! It will unseat all of the current DGIF Board Members THEN up to 3 can be appointed from the same congressional District! That means all you duck hunters may have a DGIF Board Member that lives in the mountains that has never seen a duck representing you in Richmond!
AND that also means the deer hound hunting region may be represented by someone who lives West of the Blue Ridge that knows nothing about hunting with hounds at all!
THIS IS A REAL BRIGHT IDEA- by VHDA, trying to stack the deck but they either do not realize or do not care that it will backfire on ALL HUNTERS!
CONTACT your House of Delegate Member, TODAY - VOTE NO on hb#1352

JUST because they have a hound dog - THAT don't make them a HOUNDSMAN[/align]
