I asked him if he didn't think a 338 , 7mm mag., 300 mag or bigger wasn't a little over kill on deer at 20 yrds. No answer. Just to much politic's involved in what should be reasonable game laws.
Careful there Possum: I was called out not a week or two after joining this forum in the fall of 2013 for pointing out the simple flaws of some state's game regulations!!!
I was accused of bringing up politics, when in fact, I was just stating a simple fact. Some people take that personally, which is darn crazy!
Full disclosure: Here in Arkansas, the Game and Fish Commission is run by a well to do, good old boys club: "the Commissioners", and they frequently make rulings and decisions which result in hunting regulations that have no base in common sense or science! So, for all you PC'ers out there, I'm not pointing fingers at any other state's game agencies and regulations while thinking that ours are second to none!
Well said Possum!
