Bowhunter Alert
State and local bowhunting organizations are invited to attend a meeting on January 5 to hear a presentation of a bowhunting defense plan from the U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance (USSA).
The meeting is in response to the announcement by the newly merged Humane Society of the United States and the Fund for Animals that bowhunting would be a priority target.
On November 30, USSA convened a conference call of bowhunting leaders to discuss the threat. Participating in the call were representatives from the Archery Trade Association (ATA), Bowhunter Magazine, Bowhunting.net, Bowhunting World Magazine, Bowsite.com, International Bowhunting Organization, and the Pope & Young Club.
USSA was asked by the call participants to prepare a bowhunter defense plan to be presented at a meeting held during the ATA show in Indianapolis, Indiana. The meeting will be on Wednesday, January 5 from 2:00 – 4:00 PM in room 110 of the Indianapolis Convention Center.
Bowhunting leaders interested in attending the meeting or finding out more about the threat should contact USSA at
[email protected] or telephone 614-888-4868.
