The term "Fair Chase" shall not include the taking of animals under the following conditions:
[ol][*]Helpless in a trap, deep snow or water, or on ice.[*]From any power vehicle or power boat.[*]While confined behind fences as on game farms, etc.[*]By "Jacklighting" or shining at night.[*]By the use of tranquilizers or poisons.[*]By the use of any power vehicles or power boat for herding or driving animals, including the use of aircraft to land alongside or to communicate with or direct a hunter on the ground.[*]By the use of electronic devices for attracting, locating or pursuing game, or guiding the hunter to such game, or by the use of a bow or arrow to which any electronic device is attached.[*]Any other condition considered by the Board of Directors as unsportsmanlike[/ol]

So, does that mean no rangefinders, no red dot sights and no lighted nocks?
Nope. Red dot sights, maybe, but the rangefinder isn't attached to the bow and doesn't locate the deer. Also, my lumenocks are electrical, not electronic. Same with thelighted sights. Electrical, not electronic. Big difference.

3. While confined behind fences as on game farms, etc.
Now I love the way that's worded.... as it should be. It sort of leaves the door open to debate.
