Nioe buck! Can't beleive it still wearing the velvet
Nice Buck, your write made me laugh, sounds like someone thanking all there sponsers
here's the Bow cam Video from the Muley kill. Its nothing Fancy and I'm no editing pro. But i think you folks will enjoy the vid. I was cleared by my local Game Warden to have the cam on my bow. He inspected it to make sure there was no laser aiming device on it and that it was only for filming. So I'm legal. The sound you hear is the Vibration from the riser transferring to the bow cam waterproof enclosure. This was a 50 yard shot and the Buck never heard the shot until the Grim Reaper hades was ripping through him.

And if they can make those decisions regardless of what the regs say that just shows that they can interpret the laws the way they want to..

There is only one Game Warden for My county and we meet occasionally during teaching Hunters ed. But he reviewed and inspected it and said he had no problems with. I mainly hunt Lincoln, so I'm not overly worried. But if i went to Spokane or another area with multiple Wardens, Then i would not have the cam on my bow but on my head. He said that they are looking for electronic devices that emit a laser to help with pin pointing Animals. That would be unethical and unsporting like. . You'll differently get tagged for that.

Oh ok, i read and reread the regs and it clearly says no as in no electronic devices can be attached to a bow, no where did i read if the warden says it's ok, any chance you can send me a copy of the written letter so i can get the same from my warden and attach a cam to my bow, you can pm me the letter if you'd rather not post it. If not i guess i can contact the warden for the area and ask to get a copy..
I am still confused, i did not know that the wardens could make adjustments to the regs based on what they think the law should be, i thought they were to uphold the laws the way they are written, yes enforcement officers have the descretion to make judgments and reason, if they think a violation deserves a ticket (not unlike a traffic stop) based on the contact during the violation, but i am still not understanding how an enforcment officer can issue a written letter of use allowing as in this case the use of an electronic device to be used when the laws says that they are not allowed, it does not say they are not allowed unless you get a note? I also thought that the laws written covered all hunters, in all counties and all gmu's within the state of washington and were not subject to an amendement by a simple letter of approval, would the warden not have to get an ok from his captain that in effect would then have to be approved by the wdfw chief that an individual would be allowed to have a device that per the regs is not allowed., allowed for this person and in doing so a precident would be then then set to allow everyone to have the same right?? I would like to have a bow mounted cam and not get cited for it, a copy of your letter of approval to take with me to the office would be great. As i hunt multiple units in the state i want to be able to have a sweeping letter of approval that will cover me in any unit..
Dear Northwest75,Could you be so kind as to share a copy of the memo with me for my review.Regards,Gamewarden@comcast.net
