I'm probably missing the method, but did the site changes remove the ability to BLOCK posts!:confused::confused:

Glad to see we didn't implement AR's and I let em walk.

You can block someone, it's in your usercp.............................if you're that much of a girlyman.:0

I would have favored AR's on state land, and I let them run.


LMAO! I've been called ALOT worse:):jaw:

Why would you favor ARs on state land and not on private land?

I hunt state land in Chenango County. Judging by what I've seen over the last few years, NY state land in that area doesn't need ARs. We've seen and taken some real decent bucks on NY state land.

Crokit, I dont hold a grudge against those who dont like ar, and I dont see any reason why anyone should hold one against those who support them.

I support it myself because the buck population has always been age poor here, and i think it would be worse without ar. I think if we had ar prior to hitting extremes with some of the reduction then kept the herd stable we would have seenmore gains with only some reduction. Another reason I support ar, is that I think that most do support ar, at least that is my opinion from those I hear from on the issues as well as overall on the message boards. My gripe, like i said is all the excess reduction.

I dont think ar is a black and white issue....either right or wrong. I also dont think its a big "biological issue". I think it more a matter of hunter opinion as to wether it should or shouldnt be. I could be wrong, but I believe more than half would like to see it continue. Hunter desires may not mean much to pgc these days, but it does play somewhat of a role in wether I support an issue or not.

IMHO a lot of the support for ARs is based on the lies Alt told while selling ARs. Every hunter enjoys seeing bucks with big racks and when a PGC biologist provides the justification for having more big buck ,obviously a lot of hunters will support it. But, how many hunters would support ARs if they were told it would likely reduce the average rack size of 2.5+ buck?

Cornelius: I don't hold a grudge against people who don't support AR's. It's a " to each his own " thing as far as I'm concerned. I just want to puke when someone tries to bullchit others with garbage that has nothing to do with a given debate, whether they are on my side or not.

I just happen to agree with AR's standing on it's own, without herd reduction issues and the nonsense that you guys are dealing with down in your neck of the woods. I don't know enough to comment on what you have on your hands, as is more than apparent neither do some who are on your side. Know what I mean? LMAO.

Keep up the good fight.
