Senate Environmental Committee Agenda for Tuesday April 16th at 9am.

[Tinlodge]

Received word that Senate Bill S1699 is now amended to S1699-A and has been placed on the Senate Environmental Committee Agenda for Tuesday April 16^th at 9am.

Please contact the members of the Senate Environmental Conservation Committee with your support of S.1699-A as soon as possible.  If you are a constituent, please let the office know. Also, if you are a current or former bowhunter it is important that you also let them know. We need to let them know that there is a large segment of bowhunters that support crossbow use in all seasons. This is not only a deer and bear issue, it’s a small game issue too. We should be able to hunt turkeys, bowfish and hunt all small game.

S1699-A Language

A neat and tidy outline for a letter that people can copy, paste and modify as they need to would be nice. Make it simple for the guys that are a little less savvy with the technology.

I agree but NY Crossbow Coalition is a fledgling organization. We should all make a letter in your own email, then click on the links that Tin provided, then take your letter from email and copy and paste it into the email link and hit senderooo.

Thats what I mean, if someone wrote one up that was well written, and posted it say, here, others could copy and paste into the emails to the contacts listed. I didnt mean anything complex like some of the big companies are doing for the gun laws.

How can we find out how the vote went and what senators voted for and against?

[WNYBuckHunter]

The session starts today at 9am. Just watch the status of the bill on the Assembly web site for updates.

I own a vortex and a phoenix with custom Flemish strings and a Zeiss Z-point red dot on top of each x-bow.

I started out with one of those Parker Tornadoes and although a very good bow I went a purchased an Excal Exocet and liked it so much then went out and picked up the Axiom. I have since sold the Parker...
