RE: JIMMY HOUSTON PETITION
i think so buckhunter, but i'm not a mod. justin could answer that. i'm one of those that think bowhunters need to take the forefront in regulating our love - instead of letting others do it - and i think we need to show that we won't stand for this type of thing.
ialso wish a better petition was written.

I wish he wouldn't have done that---------I truely respected that guy until now. I wonder how many other hunting personalities do the same thing, and just were never revealed..............It puts all hunters in a bad light.........more ammo for the anti's.

I might have to watch the video again. When I looked at it, I saw Jimmy in a stand with a bow in his hand. I didn't notice him taking a shot.I'm not about to sign some petition as a knee jerk reaction.
I wonder how many other TV 'sportsmen' have gotten themselves in situations like that, getting invited to come filma 30-minute infomercialin similar circumstances to advertise the 'ranch'. Surely you guys don't think Jimmy is the only one!?! Might as well expand this petition to include all hunting shows that are advertising for a specific ranch/resort.

Sure he is not the only one!! I made a comment in another post,
Before the topic was pulled for taking cheap shots at outfitters,
there are a lot of these tv shows that are not doing, so called ethical
things, that we do not know about if there was a way to do some
research!! Don't agree about advertizing about a ranch. Thisdoes not mean there is funny stuff going on there Come on!!

Signed.....only wished I could have signed it in blood.
And regarding all this "He didnt know about it BS" it is as simple as this....
As a true ambassador of the hunting and fishing worlds, if he was a true outdoorsman, he would have climbed out of the stand, cursing and screaming all the way, and got in his car, left, and aired a show about the hunt and how he feels that it is a crying shame and an insult to bowhunting....
I didnt see that episode, did you?[:@]
