I know it's late in the game but I need your help! I sent a request for the attached proposal to be considered as part of the three year regs plan. Please read the proposal and consider getting behind it by sending a letter to the dfw and the game Commissioners via the comment line (wildthing@dfw.gov.wa). I need supporters to get behind this request and push to have it addressed as part of the three year package. This request was filed with the game dept. in Sept. and has received little attention. It was most recently published in the WSB (Washington State Bowhunter’s) newsletter as a letter to the editor and I have received a lot of positive feedback. I want to further the conversation with your help. This unit was changed mid-three year package and involved very little public impute when the decision was made to allocate all archery antlerless opportunity to a late season. I realize that the process has minimized the allocation issue due to the Governors moratorium but requests from the public should still be considered by the dfw.
Nearly 1500 archers utilized this unit for the early season and I would like to amplify the voices of those people to lend support to this request. The population numbers support this change and it should be implemented in the three year package. Please take a minute and read the attachment and then drop a letter to the process through the comment line. Public comment will be accepted until Feb. 21st and I am asking that anyone who used to utilize this unit for your general archery season opportunity to please express your feelings to dfw staff and the dfw Commissioners.
Thanks for your consideration of this issue.
