Default WHA WORLD HUNTING TOUR (OBJECTIVE POLL)

I'm assuming most here have stumbled across the thread about the "WHA" and their competitive "tranqualizer catch and release" deer hunting.

If not, see http://www.worldhunt.com

As well as the press releases here: http://sports.espn.go.com/outdoors/hunting/news/story?id=2474274&campaign=rss&source=ESPNH eadlines

Or search Google News for this: [ "WHA" hunting ] Copy inside the [ and ], then paste in the google news search bar.

My poll is seeking an objective, annonymous tally in percentages here of how folks feel. I'm leaving out the middle of the fence type answer to reflect the divisive nature of this "endeavor".

This is not the place for flaming and bashing each other on you're opinions. Please be respectful.

I too feel that nothing good can come of this and I'm doing my best to take action by e-mailing sponsers and telling them I won't use thier products if they go through with a sponsership. I have also contacted Texas Parks & Wildlife and let them know how I feel. State and Federal legislators are next.

Eastman, Gorrila, and Cabon Express (same company I believe) have posted media alerts at the tops of their sites stating they have declined involvement with WHA. G5 outdoors is another story however...they are in cahoots with WHA and are helping, so far, to develop the drug delivery system as well as sponsoring.

G5really suprisedme with their response. I'll not be using their products as long as they support this nonsense.

I've written an article to my local paper with a link to this thread.

Are these not controlled substances to be administered by a veterinarian? Perhaps getting the veterinarians involved?
