I, however, believe a " change in the wind" is occurring within the Pope & Young Club and intend to continue pushing this initiative until all fairchase North American bowhunters are eligible for :Bowhunting Records of North America" . Ryk
Hmmm... ALL fair chase? Does that mean those with lighted sights? (If legal in your area)
PERSONALLY, I think that if you are hunting within your state regulations, and shooting a BOW (not an x-bow) you should be in. With the trend towards 80% you are going to see more and more " P&Y" bucks NOT in the book...but in Buckmasters or something. This WILL hurt the legitimacy of the P&Y book as an archery records book. If they do NOT change, it will simply become a book of animals shot guy guys who use certain arbitrary restrictions on their equipment.
