In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

Wow.  I hope this is a positive that leads to a more reasonable appointment.

I have no faith in the Governor on this, every time he steps into the wildlife issue it's blatantly against consumptive use.  No science, no data, just the cute animal theorem.

It wouldn't surprise me if Inslee doubled down and made a revenge appointment, but what's the alternative? Would we have been happier if Koontz stayed? If he does make another bad appointment we yell twice as loud on the next one

I think it's the Eastern slot as well as if Larry leaves that are the big questions.  No doubt he'll replace Koontz with someone that looks just like him.

I feel good knowing that I was part of the force that led to an environmentalist that doesn't even know what hunting is resigning from the commission that makes our rules.  Sending emails and being inundated by us hunters worked.  That's awesome new for us

Don't let the door hit you in ....
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
