Re: BCWF to push for CROSSBOW BAN
There was once a muzzle-loader season. What happened?
Did modern in-line scope-sighted ML rifles defeat the purpose of having a primitive firearm season?
Re: BCWF to push for CROSSBOW BAN
Wow with thoughts like these.....yes even just thoughts coming from our Regional Leaders ya wonder why membership is shrinking. No flippin wonder.
Where the hell and what ever happened to the BCWF supporting all legal hunters of BC.
Crazy. We can certainly be our own worst enemies.
Glad I belong to a few other organizations that are thinking of the greater good for all rather than self driven ideas and agendas.
As said. Crazy.
Life long rifle and shot gunner that recently picked up a X Bow because of pooched shoulder. To challenge myself more not because of special seasons.

CT- this is the agenda of a couple individuals in Reg 2. I can pretty much guarantee it’s not going far.

Coupled with today’s optics, a crossbow today is far more capable than those of even 10 years ago. This regulation change has already been established in Alberta so I was not proposing anything new.
What I wanted to do here was start a conversation. Not ban anything or take away anyone’s right to hunt. Those that know me know that I’ve fought for hunter access in Delta and the Fraser Valley for most of my life.
I just find it sad that we cannot have a real conversation about something these days without everyone getting their panties in a bunch. As this shit storm has progressed, I’ve decided that I will not be proposing this resolution at the Region 2 AGM next weekend. It’s dead. Seems as though free speech and open discussion are as well.
Jim Fox (Foxton Gundogs) you of all people have been around long enough to know this is NOT how procedure is supposed to work around resolutions coming to the table. Usually what happens is that a resolution comes forward and gets discussed (both for and against) and then it gets voted on. This shouldn’t be happening in the court of social media as it quickly becomes a circus. Shame on you for the way you’ve handled this Jim.
I’m out.
I think What Jim did was perfect. It showed you how ridiculous this idea was. Showed you how many people vehemently appose the taking away of our right to hunt. You want this in a closed room of minimal people who think like you.
I am also taken back by Clarks opinion on this.

I think it had something to do with your opinion on the 375 Ruger...

I just figured you would have been more on side with what this thread was created for.
I understand that this thread came out " Guns blazing" but in cases like this they need to. Your post 31 mentioning 1 guy ... it only takes one guy. and post 53 about the dramatic way the tread was started.. this is an issue.
lately these sorts of things have been getting at me. Threads like Kossers, Sure I went a bit balls deep on that one... Threads like this one.... Clark, I just see way too much self destruction in our sport. That's all.
sure I can understand how far Crossbows have come,,, but so have Bows... This is just another "inside attack" .... Sure at times I might be just as "Dramatic" as anyone here, I did call Kosser a Vegetarian... lol...
But we need to band up, we need places like the BCWF to work for us making Game not taking it.
