At one time I was adamantly opposed to their use in regular archery season but I'm backing away from that position due to a lack of evidence that it has negatively impacted season lenghth or tag allocationsanywhere it's been used.
I understand what your saying Bob. I know that sometimes our fears are worse than the actual reality. But don't forget the reality of PA being 800,000 licensed hunters, plus non-residents. We can learn from other states, but all the while remembering that PA is unique in the sheer numbers of hunters, so I do fear the season being shortened, where maybe it wasn't a factor in another state. I don't fret about the tool itself, just the ramifications of it being unleashed in our unique situation.
The fact that all the pressure is coming from manufacturers is seriously disturbing. They are only concerned with creating a market for the product. How can that be good in the scheme of things?
