Default RE: Kansas allows scope on early season muzzload hunts

I'm not belittling anyone's choices at all. If you use a scope this year, then that's 100% fine with me, as it's legal... no problem there. I think there are great points to both sides of the debate. I just don't agree with the narrowly passed change which the KDWP made.

I completely understand and respect the arguement of poor eye sight. And it's not that I want to restrict you from seeing clearly. I just feel there are alternatives. If there is a medical condition to require a scope to see to shoot why not require a doctors note likewas the case of using a crossbow. If that's not good enough, then why not a scope at 1X. I personally have great eyesight, but have several members of my family and close friends who have very poor eyesight... all which can still have make good groups at up to100 yards without a scope and with corrective eye glassses/contacts & fiber-optic sights.

I have nothing against a seperate ML season. I just don't like the idea of weapon, thatwhen properly tuned to shoot 200+ yards, havinganOctober Season... for the same reason I wouldn't support a rifle season to open on Nov 1st.

But it doesn't really matter now. It's beyond the point, as it's already changed. Best to yourluck this fall.
