my first comment doesnt appear to have worked after a day, sorry if a dup. Thank you Randy for connecting us with CRWM, great info. I did donate to help with the fight, I hunt often in CO so this podcast really hit home for me. I had no idea how far reaching and deceptive the language within these types of legislation can be. If there was one comment to make that would make it better for me, it would be to have a "sound bite" that focused the msg that I could communicate to others.
great info captured in this podcast Randy. Ive known of Howl but this group has a very focused purpose in the state I hunt the most. I just donated for the cause. one thing I wish was made available more often is a sound bite for whatever the cause is, so when I am trying to promote the cause I would have the best message to communicate to non-hunters.
Thank you to Randy and Shane for leading and educating people on wildlife conservation. Truly, great work! I am interested to hear the views and gain knowledge when the conservation model is successful yet politics have interfered with the balance that is typical of wildlife management practices. For example, I understand wolf and grizzley bear populations have exceeded minimum levels of endangerment yet politics restrict harvesting these animals. What scenarios can be expected to the wildlife balance if these types of policies continue? ken
you can take the online course for 300 bucks but can't get a point until you field test and they're backlogged over a year and they're only letting youth hunters field test right now so the hunter ed bonus point isn't really an option for adults right now.
yes I need to check outside .com I was drawn for my first goat hunt in Washington and I normally bow hunt it the thick PNW so I only own a 8 power binos and no spotting scope haha.
just want to say that I would be honored to be along on the bear hunt that was mentioned. jeep up the great work
thank you randy
