Your Welcome.
It is dangerous.
Of the five caveats that the DNR asked for. Only one was accepted by the court.
That of having an earthen back stop with 125 yrds of the shooter.
The other 4 items the DNR asked for were, as follows.
*prior notification of activities in a given area
*pre-scout an area in proximity to a hunting activity
* that night hunters be rewuired to use a spotter
*that tribal hunters start after the 9 day deer hunt.
The WON has an article as well in the Oct. 30 issue. Starting on the front page, and continuing later.
What this boils down to is special privileges for a special class of people.
I think its time to reconsider the treaties that were signed, and abolish them.
