I live in the smack middle of the four bow only counties in Southern WV and I don't give a rats butt as to what any outsider thinks about this. The point is that the people here want this to be kept bow-only, in a unanimous decision. If you wanna come to our area to hunt then hunt by our rules. Do we go into counties up north and fuss and cry about making it bow-only? No. You guys want it kept open to gun season, so if we hunt there, then we have to play by your rules, its only fair that you do the same when you come to our counties to hunt.
From someone who also hunts and comes smack dab to the middle (well edge) of those counties, what in the world are you talking about????? Nobody here is saying they are not going to play by Mingo's etc rules?
I thought what he said was pretty clear. He doesn't want outsiders like the NRA to come in and dictate rules when the people who live there don't want it. I know you said earlier that you know several people who want a gun season in these counties, but where were they during the Commission meeting. I can tell you where. They were like the NRA (Not Really Around). I don't know why you are still arguing this, bigcountry. It really doesn't matter anymore.
no, it was clear from his post he thinks people are coming in not playing by the rules. That doesn't make a lick of sense. Well, most of the people who would like to gun hunt in the pineville, mullens, Gilbert area would come to a commission meeting. I don't blame em. I can't imagine they would have been accepted well. What you don't understand is the loudest group is not the always the right ones, in fact, rarely.peta is prime example, they are out there making a bunch of noise, where are us hunters?
