The hypocrisy is deafening as they hunt with their $1000+ compounds bows, tree climber stands, GPS, game cams and high tech thermal gear.

I don't believe for a second that primitive regs in many states have anything to do with hunting "old school". Its just a way to sell another tag and increase revenue but limit the success rate so they can boast about game numbers in their state.


I agree whole heartedly!!!!! Somehow the bow hunters put themselves up as the only way to archery hunt!!! And now we have the FL only group that thinks this is the only way to hunt primitive!!! I'm getting sick with all this talk. I say have one season and hunt with whatever tool you want!!! Boy, that's about the simplest way out of this problem I would think.
