Nope. Funny how NYB tries to change their tune once they have lost their initiative. They have been pitting hunter vs hunter for years. The worst kind of hunting organization, IMO.

We have argued the hell out of what belongs in bow season over the past bunch of years, and repeating the same things over and over does not convert an opinion to fact. If this new device turns out to be a viable big-game weapon (this design or the next), the argument will be starting all over again from scratch. And whether limbs and strings are ever even mentioned in the official debate and the end decision we can only guess. I have watched those definitions get twisted beyond recognition, so I am not about to say what new arguments will be brought out by the supporters. I'm sure they would include the aged and the infirm and the new infusion of hunters into our declining numbers and all the other standard emotional leverages. What I will not try to guess is what new bending of definitions that would take place. I am always amazed at how creative people can be.

It would be funny if some day it did become an issue. It would be worth it just to watch those that called NYB exclusionary, elite, and selfish, squirm and dance as they find themselves selfishly trying to safeguard their bow season by excluding a new category of hunters and their weapons. That would be funny. I don't think I would even get involved in the debate .... just sit back and watch the hypocracy .... lol. Of course that all assumes that anybody would even care enough to fight the inclusion. Maybe this would be considered "pitting hunter against hunter". That would be the worst kind of action wouldn't it? Can't we all just get along???? ....lol.
