texas is probably 99% private land anyways. I dont see what the harm is?
It's not the fact of land ownership in the first place, it's the idea of allowing encroaching gun hunters into the archery only season of which bowhunters MUST BUY A PERMIT (archery tag) and youth hunters don't.
Archery hunters worked long and hard and lobbied for an archery only season and now they want to take it away because the TWPD thinks it will interest more younger people to the outdoors when in fact there are other ways, other programs to get them interested without taking away our archery only season.
If it was your state we in Texas wouldn't be saying''what's the big deal''.
