I am in agreement easier understanding regs are needed. Did you realize it is illegal to have treeing switches on your collars? You would figure something like that would be in the regs. It's not. How are new houndsmen supposed to know when they are breaking the law. They have to search the WACs and find some obscure law that they don't even know exisits.

Remember, the reg book is not comprehensive. They are just an overview of the game laws.
More typos..

Same guy same screen name Krusty, and I agree, I'll leave this one alone.
Your right Billy, but does every new sportsmen know they have to scour the WACs to find obscure laws? Probably not, something like treeing switches being illegal, should be in the regs. But you are right about your point.

I agree as well. Those "obscure" laws that have "always" been there should be alot easier to find. I would gladly pay a small fee for a comprehensive copy every few years. That way I wouldn't have to scour the net for RCWs & WACs only to find out they were replaced or updated.
What I don't understand is how something like the treeing switch is such a big deal. Do you know why they put that into effect?

I'm going to start another thread, Obscure Laws, that way we don't hijack this threa any more :)

And Ducks Unlimited, Trout Unlimited, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, and Pheasant Forever, have also all lobbied for clarity.
That's a lot of big organizations, all with the charge of "lookin' out for us", that believe we do need change (and spending a fair amount of OUR money trying).

I highly doubt that DU has done any lobbying it is not in their mission statement and they have refused to in the past and continue till this day.
What has the Hunters Heritage or W4WC said, as I consider those the ones tasked to "look" out for us.
