Lets see....we have expandables, we have lighted sticks, is there anyway we can incorporate natives rights or wolves into this so we can have the ultimate tri-fecta of  :yike: topics.

If the natives would use expandables and illuminoks to harvest wolves  now that's a topic.  :chuckle:

That is the proposal that will be voted on by the Commission in April, not currently legal.

Ooops Bone you missed one... How about a "traditional" archery season, or a primitive weapons season or GMU's?   :chuckle:

lighted nocks will result in less arrow/broadheads left out in the woods!

Supposedly.  For me, arrows are expensive enough.  I'm not adding $10/per arrow for a light

I might add a few on to save a few bucks.  For my target arrows I wont waste the money for them.

10-4.  Just make sure to try it out first, it adds some weight to the arrow, so you will want to know what it is going to do when it comes time to release on your buck/bull/whatever.

Supposedly....???? have you never missed? never had a arrow blow threw? of course it will help archers recover more arrows.

bright colored fletchings, reflective wraps, or maybe just maybe... how about the lighted nock which has no electronics which is already legal here.....
