" 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

Man this would be so awesome. Money generator and money saver all at once. Control which cats are removed from the population more effectively. Seems like a no brainer!

How does it get around the initiative? Is it because it is a ”wdfw study”?

It is three days until policy cut-off and VanDeWege is the king of the animal-rights guys, so he is not going to hear the bill in the next three days.  Or so I've heard...

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.

That sucks to hear, Special T. This bill would be so great to get passed. Hopefully a few more suburban dogs get killed by cougars and attitudes towards them start to change...

We will see how it pans out. Hopefully some one can twist some arms, but with all the other big issues hitting the deadline I'm curious how many will spend the political capitol to make it happen.

I would love to see it happen but Im kind of doubtful.
