State land ..makes it even better
-
I d issagree with muzzleloader they would.of made crossbow legal all bow.. they looked at muzzleloader after that proposal failed.. face it bow success is low but more than triples if you can increase hunter numbers in that season using crossbow.. that is the goal reduce numbers in those areas..obviously bow hunters won't do it so introduce numbers that will.. bow hunters can avoid this by killing doe onndoe tags early..take 3 or 4 deer by bow..they give us a long season..
-
Doc. Under the current Dec you are correct..they are tasked with controlling numbers .. Under a game commission I believe you would be wrong. Polical appointment would be gone.. it would be in charge of all.game.amd game.lands.. logging ,habitat management, game management and reintroduction, studies would all be autonomous from politics .. true game management would be possible .. primitive seasons and split or extended seasons could be put in place with no opposition.. requirements to use weapons could be unified such as bow course for crossbow instead of having to use a loophole to make them legal... politics is the problem

They do not fly south... they are a kind of wood thrush they simply move into conifers and stay the winter
-
Oh the lawmakers were informed ..by lobbiests that didn't want them so a compromise was made.. but expecting change quickly or soon is a fairytail.. full inclusion will.come 1st and that is prolly 2 or 3 years away..
-
Freezing is a good thing.less bugs, snakes, alligators, and lizards and possums... one good thing of living in the north
-
Fluff their feathers pick berries off bushes and get into cover. Like so many others. Animals seem to do fine if left outdoors we are the ones that take that ability away from our dogs and cats by keeping them in the house.. back when you didn't get arrested for having a dog outside out cookies and husky wo old just burrow in the snow or get under overhang..they rarely.used doghouse no matter how much straw we insulated it with.. cats always seemed to use that...
-
I didn't make law.. it was push and pull by lobbiests.(nyb) and crossbow coalition Dec made suggestions but lawmakers did it.. personally I'd rather have a true game department make the regs to manage game. But that will not happen with put an amendment.. that would.solve all the debate on crossbow, rifles ,season lengths extending seasons ,distance from buildings, weapons allowed ( I'm hoping for spear someday) and Robertson Pittman fund would go solely for game management instead of cleaning up industrial sites, dredging rivers and changing boilers in NYC because its good for wildlife excuse to funnel monies that way...
-
Just never enforced.. I hunted with a 12 that carried 8..for years till I read old regs. Ignorance is not an excuse I try my best to be compliant and read new regs every year..(Like electronic calls for deer see other thread). same as there are shows out there being used that don't comply.. on private land chances of being stopped and checked are slim. To none.. we really.do need an amendment and a true game department
-
The mathematical formula comes up with an average of 200lbs and 17 in limb.. I'm not the mathtician who figured it out. Tech has changed rapidly law.is set just get it changed
-
Isn't that up to the company? If you want to sell cars i they have to be emmision compliant.. and there are several Excalibur bows that meet requirement
-
6 plus one.. shotguns are 5 plus one.. was law till mid 90s
-
The question is why do you need to see these limits raised? Many crossbows are available.that fit them. I'd like a Ferrari but the Subaru will do ...speed limit is 65 anyway..
-
Again the question was why the reasons were given .. if you want it changed write your reps not the Dec. The law needs to be changed Dec does t make laws just asked to enforce them
-
For an example the model 12 shotguns illegal to hunt with in N.Y. with out being plugged.. before rifles were allowed I saw many of these guns in the a woods. 99% were not plugged nor did the users even know they were ilegal..99% were never stopped and checked but the ones that were found out quicknwhat w as the law.. crossbows are the same.. just follow the damn law! Want it changed change the law write your reps. Or better yet push for amendment ant put game in control of game managers..
-
Ever hear of new York bowhunters? And yes compounds were restricted for many years..no fiber optic pins pr lighted or releases.hell just to get compounds legal . as for enforcement the dec is an enviromentsl orgizination ( pollution is primary concern).. game mansgement is secondary. You can do what you want .. don't bitch if your caught.. thing is there are hundreds of crossbows. Again read above post stop looking. At Dec for regs they are done by politicians ( paid off by lobbiest) we need a constitutional amendment for right to hunt and fish to be governed by game department and let them make the regs...
-
His patten was jan 18 2013..for reverse limb..previous bows were conventional.. directly.from his site..
-
It was patented in 2013.. crossbow was passed in 2013 finalized and effective 2014 season.. so obviously the bow was not available in any quantity so it was not.looked at for specs.. I don't think months is Much longer unless you are talking about Leonardo divinci drawing of a reverse draw draw crossbow.
-
Jags are completely beatable they have not played well..lost their last 2 games.. we have good d if offence can throw a few long balls we can win easily
-
Yes but when law was made they didn't exist so formula to make even field stands.. remember dec doenst make or change laws.only enforce those or enlightens politicians make
-
They are set by our lawmakers.. get off your asses and ask for constitutional right to hunt and fish to be governed by game department ..then the Dec can make the regs ..and not have to enforce what some feel good lawmakers saw due to lobbying.. we would have full inclusion and these limits could be easily moved as well as new weapons added to hunt with like air guns and spears.... sick of people bashing d ec over something they have no control over...he'll we don't even have a season next year till politicians vote on it...
-
Yes but still tested by ammo and if it meets or doesnt meet criteria then is legal or illegal.. using base from ammo or other org
-
That's why ammo and other agencies do testing at specific weights and arrows..you rarely get spewed bow is advertised at as they use minimums but they are then rested on even level for making legal or not

Limb with has to do with power stroke = ke

Happy Birthday!!
