Finally some good news

Still have a numbers problem. But I don't disagree.

You'd see a lot of numbers drop off imo.

AZ was issuing the 'illegal' disability permits. AZ could easily fix that and still allow hunters who cannot physically shoot a bow to use x bow without magnifying optics, to hunt during archery. It was not easy to get my disability x bow authorization here in CO, I needed a signed form from my Dr. He consulted the regs before signing my permit. If AZ doesn't trust Drs to be honest they should firm up the regs on what specifically constitutes x bow eligibility, then designate specific Drs with training on the topic and make permit seekers go through only those Drs. There is a flavor of kneejerk reaction against genuinely handicapped archers in this, just because the state didn't do it's due diligence in their handicap permitting process.

Agree, but not 100%. People use scam doctors to get drugs, too.

Too many doctors would sign anything without recognizing the consequences. And too many hunters would use anything to make it easier. They probably have handicapped parking permits too.

Based on the condition of the mule deer herd it’s in our best interest to promote a more fair means way of pursing mule deer. Logically a trad now only for mule deer hunting is one way as sportsmen/women that we can bring about change, like getting mule deer hunting in the rut.

like getting mule deer hunting in the rut.

I say let's quit mule deer hunting in the rut.

Can you imagine the game numbers/and trophy quality if rifle season was open sights, muzzleloader was sidelock, and archery was stick and string. Not to mention the oppurtunity it would provide for all of us in the number of tags that would be available. People don't want oppurtunity though they want to fill a tag as easily as possible. I say this as a guy who shoots a 15x scope, an in line muzzleloader and a compound bow. I would be in overwhelming favor of it though if we could pull that off.

Nobody on Rokslide would kill anything. mtmuley
