Unfortunately, there is not a lot that can be done...archers represent an almost insignificant portion of the hunting population. As such, we are easy pickings! We have no official bowhunting organization, and, therefore, have no lobbying power whatsoever !

Unfortunately, we are in a state of unbalance in the First State, with farmers, insurance companies, and urban landowners pushing hard for an eradication (and when I say eradication I mean EXTINCT!!!) of our ever-expanding deer herd. Representatives from these groups make up a larger portion of the interested parties. They are well versed in the political arena and are sound lobbyists!! Again, there goal is to reduce the deer population SIGNIFICANTLY if not TOTALLY!

My major beef with the whole concept is not lost days a field for the archer, but the deer population is not evenly distributed throughout the state and yet we keep managing it like they are!
