Do any of you realistically see your state's F&G dept. giving up bow hunting revenue ?

There is no moneymaker like a non-profit org. They dont want us gone,they just have to make it look like an effort to do so to keep the money flowing.They have to score a hit every now and then,but it wont be bow hunting.Probobly something like domestic dog and cat fur market in europe or something.

HSUS may be well funded and organized , but that doesn't mean that they will be unbeatable . They lose court challenges more often than they win in cases where they try to stop hunts , and spend ridiculous amounts of money each time . Let 'em pop off , they'll just waste even more money .

I think we all need to be vigilant concerning our sport. Whether its bows or guns, we never want the anti-hunting organizations toget a foot in the door. I'm not sure if any of you have seen the latestannouncementout of England or not, butNOW they are banning samauri swords! First they took their guns, and now they are after something else. See guys!it starts somewhere (GUNS) and who knows where it ends.I understand that we are not out there hunting with a sword,(I'mnot THAT good!)but my point is that it starts with something, and we TRULY need to be aware of what is going on. I think the one thing that is most important at this time, is choosing our political canidateswisely.

Complacency is dangerous. There's a gal from Scotland who posts here fairly frequently. She says bowhunting is illegal there because they believe it's cruel. It could happen here.
