Let me get this straight, you just said the ABA, Black Sheep Bowman and the Juneau Archery Club promote only the opportunity, not the method? If it wasn't for organizations such as these, you wouldn't currently have the DHCMA to discuss, take a look at the akbowhunters websight and look at their accomplishments. See what they have done for people like you in this state. And hell yes, they are trying to increase opportunity. Since when is that a bad thing?
If somebody is more of a bowhunter than another person that hunts with a bow, then what is the difference that one specific area in the state matters? I don't agree with your reasoning at all. Removal of the 1/4 mile restriction does nothing for the opportunistic people in the way of teaching them ethics. I felt that the 1/4 mile restriction was only giving them more laws to break, and only affected those that truely care of the area and the opportunity that is there. You make it sound like the 1/4 mile is a breaking point between ethical and unethical, the rule should of never gone into effect in the first place. A rule in the books to make you walk 440 yards further before you hunt will not change the way these people go after their quarry.

Take a look at proposal #270 and tell me these organizations aren't trying to do something. Do you have any idea on what is going on right now in the bill making its way to the Senate Finance Committee? I think there are bigger fish to fry from divisions like BLM and the subsistance board. It is bills like these that I worry about closing this area down, not a few unethical people flinging aimless arrows. I wish there was something that could be done to raise the level of awareness and ethics to these people, but you will probably find most of them are bull headed and don't care what the cause is for their actions.
