August Bear Hunting
« on: January 26, 2009, 10:42:33 AM »
How many of you would support an August archery/muzzleloader bear season on public lands as a compromise to what has been proposed?

Yes, Only if they were to restore tags taken away or add additional tags to what has been proposed.

Bear hunting in August is my favorite hunt.
If the August season is closed to rifle, I wont buy a hunting licence in WA next year. I'll be spending all of my hunting dollars out of state. Deer,elk,and bear in ID. Varmints in OR. and deer/black bear in SE AK. It will mean less time hunting for me, especially for yotes .

The species needs to be managed correctly.  Taking away modern firearm from public land in August will not work and is an outrage.  All hunters need to band together and fight this issue (And I am a bowhunter.).  If we don't it is a victory for anti-hunters everywhere.

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.
