[QUOTE="Pat S., post: 182726, member: 1161"] Not naive if the commission can be convinced to limit the technology as pertaining to the primitive weapons season.BH[/QUOTE] Obviously, the best you can do is put limitations on it and limit its affect and impact. I say. My comments were made to the IDFG commission for consideration just like YOURS would be if you care to enter them. Neither you nor the commissioners need to consider ANY of our comments. The mandate will come as the current regulations do from the commission upon consideration of the input on this topic. Nowhere. Again these were my comments(asked for) to the IDFG commission as to where I believe the primitive weapons season should go in the future in Idaho. I guess you could say our current regulations now were put in place through the personal whims/desires of the IDFG commissions, past and present. Based in part by input through comments from people on both sides of this issue. Also taken into account is how these seasons will impact the game herds and maximize the days afield for hunters---a balancing act. Would you have no limitations or regulations, with anything goes, as long as it is preceived to get hunters in the field? Primitive weapons in general, in the past, have had a lower impact on the game species, therefore leading to the dept. increasing opportunity to this segment of the hunting community, which should equate to more days afield for both veteran and novice hunters. When the technology improves to where the success rates go up and start to approach a modern weapon the dept. will cut back this opportunity I believe. If trying to increase the opportunity for more days afield for all hunters willing to hunt with a weapon that will lower their chance of success then I guess you can label me selfish. You're right. That's where I'm at now and why I either limit my shot with a muzzleloader to a range I can be effective or hunt with my scoped rifle in the general season. [/QUOTE]
