Not sure on that closure in MD. As for Virginia things may be abit tougher. As of 2-3 years ago the State added an amendent to the VA Constitution making Hunting a right. I'm sure the Gov. can adjust the season but may have to jump through several hoops to get it past? We'll see.

It's official.<img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_angry.gif border=0 align=middle>

I can feel for ya Cyclone. This will pass and you'll be back on track shortly. Not sure how much high tech military back ground you have but trust me. There is a very good and much more important reason for limiting the number of shots fired in a given area. It really has little to do with people calling in falsely. There's some &quot;Super sonic&quot; technogy out there that is way beyond the common eyes and ears intel...

I'm no fan of Gov Glendening and he would have proablly acted on his own knowing the way he is about hunting and guns but this move was requested by the area police saying they were wasting too much time on &quot;shots fired&quot; calls that were hunter related.

Wow, that is one of the stupidest things I have even seen or heard. I hope you MD voters remember this at the ballets.

MD has changed their hunting license structure, this is the first year that muzzleloader and bow stamps were required. if they don't catch this guy and all muzzleloader season is cancelled i want my money back and encourage everyone else affected to contact the DNR for the same. it'll be interesting to see what excuses the DNR and glendenning come up with to keep our money.

I would want the money back for any day that you missed.

That is terrible. I understand you guys are upset, but asking for your money back is only hurting your cause. Remember the majority of that money goes to preserving your rights as hunters. If you feel the need to rattle someone's cage (which you should) get online and flood the governor with complaints of outrage at his ridiculous decision and contact your state's Congressman. Good luck and let's all pray that this spineless maniac is caught soon.
