[QUOTE="etisll40, post: 704525, member: 15229"] Thanks Rick, -I do agree, more than 75 yards doesn't seem ethical to me either. I do think that hunters and the DEC have to work with integrity. I ended up buying a piece of land secluded next to the state land here as safety is an issue for the deer and us hunters. Last year not more than 300 yards across a distant road I knew was there some guy or 2 shot about 12 times in 2 minutes! Our thought was he is either target practicing or a bad shot or an idiot or all 3. He had a shotgun and about 10 minutes later 2 deer appeared in front of us. Lucky for us. But it does scare the heck out of me to think that a semi auto shotgun or next an ar-15 in the wrong hands is just not safe for deer or other hunters. This year I am happy I shouldn't have to worry about that. I too think that the DEC is going to have to be in the field a bit more and ethics should be considered a long with #1 safety hand in hand.
