rossman Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 This is a bowhunter issue due to the possibility of a muzzleloader season being placed in the middle of archery!!!! First, it seems as of the DEC has no clue as to which direction to run. Their was so much opposition to this proposal that the biologist sat down and stopped participating. Three good points brought up are: 1.) Increasing the quality of our deer herd by implementing antler restricions. 2.) Implementing a youth hunting season. 3.) Coyote problem and what to do about it. The problem is. The New York State DEC is wasting our time and tax dollars by holding meetings about these cokamamy proposals. What we should be discussing is the three points above. I asked to biologist before the meeting. What is the opposition to support ratio. He said, "50:50". I looked at him and said, "bullcrap". After I questioned his ratio, he got all nervous and started stutering. this is a true sign of a liar. The DEC lies to make it look like the people favor their proposals. Unbelievable. Finally, a hunter asked who proposed the idea of placing a muzzleloader season in the middle of archery. He actually said, "it was a group of bow hunters". The place erupted!!!!!! The problem with New York state DEC is not our hunters. It is the people running the organization. They have no direction what so ever!!!! And they are too erogant to adopt policies from other states, ex) Pennsylvania!!!! I feel like it is all a bad dream. NYS DEC needs to concentrate on the real issues, not off the wall proposals that will only piss hunters off!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the meetings, at least 90% of the hunters attending do not support it. He probably was going by the letters and emails sent in by the public and not the meetings itself.

[/ QUOTE ] If this is directed to me, than the meetings could very well be inaccurate due to low participation of ML hunters. So to answer your question, I am not sure if it is 50:50, but if they were saying that in reference to letters and e-mails then it could be a possibility.
