Very interesting DMS - thanks for that info? may I ask 'where' you heard that info from? You can always PM me if you prefer on this.

I live here in NY and haven't heard that bit of info from anyone!

Certainly interesting and if true def a positive move on NYS's part! We really ought to just legalize them and be done with this foolish argument. MY thought(s) are - if one doesn't like them - then just don't hunt with one - period - but don't take away the right of other(s) from using one if they so-choose, especially those who have shoulder, arm, elbow, etc. injuries, strength or ROM limitations or handicaps.
