Adjam5 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 This Saturday is Nat'l Hunting and Fishing day. Home - National Hunting and Fishing Day See if there is an event happening by you! The Sportsmens Federation that I belong to here in my county, is hosting a BIG event to promote hunting and fishing and all things outdoors. We have the town Supervisor on board and NYS DEC also. I am quite excited about this opportunity to expose others to our world. Kids will have the ability to make their own cane pole(and keep it) to fish with right there in the park with donated hooks,bobbers and worms. Where I live is about 40 miles from NYC. So you can imagine the small mindedness and misinformation we encounter when it comes to hunting, fishing and trapping. We also expect a few protesters. You know...people who think animals have rights...Yeah...Those kind. To be there. But this is a town sanctioned and sponsored event. So any interuptions or intervention will be dealt with by law enforcement. I, as a county Rep for NY Bowhunters. Have been asked to lead and coordinate the archery instruction with a few volenteers from NYB helping out. We have about 7 Mathews Genesis bows for kids to shoot. This is our county's first event of this kind and we are hoping other towns will want this happening in their town next year. We have some great sponsors and I would really Like to thank Team Realtree for their help. Thanks to you too Scott! So on this coming Saturday, see if you can expose someone new to hunting and fishing. Help pass it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 That is cool Anthony. Don't know of any events like that around here. Probably going to take a new hunter this fall a few times as well as getting Nicole out, she wants to kill her first deer this year. Our opener is tomorrow morning, got some things to take care of that will keep me from making the opener, gonna be warm anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have any idea who they are? Man they are legends. One with a Long bow the other with a shotgun. Hope you and Da make it. Would love to see those guys in person. BTW guys...It feels like the night before opening day to me with this event happening tomorrow. I will post pics of the event. Good luck tomorrow William.
