If you look at FB policies they are a grass rooted org and have actually supported quite a few sportsmens/right to hunt bills in the state (including the right to hunt amendment in to the state constitution which I think about everyone on here would agree was a positive).. Their policies are brought forward by members, and voted on a local level, than a state level by their members.. If you're talking about my old man and I on here you must be noticing stuff (or following) us on facebook as he is banned and I haven't commented or even been on this site in quite awhile (april maybe?). As far as your key points behind our mention up there... Do youth and the handicap benefit from being able to hunt over bait? Absolutely. Do I care how you want to hunt (public vs private, bait vs no bait, rifle vs bow (i do give crossbow guys some grief from time to time))? Absolutely not. My opinion is that however a person wants to hunt, go ahead as long as it's legal. I really don't care how you do and think it' dumb for another hunter to look down on someone for wanting to enjoy the outdoors legally however they choose. I invite you to show me 1 place where I have come out and said it's about landowner rights.. Because I've actually said that it's a pretty slippery slope to bring outdoor regulations in to just a private property argument (and actually supported amendments on to 1151 that would have "regulated" baiting on private property like setbacks and quantities) and so did my dad. As far as nutrition goes.. the more equally balanced nutrionally and healthy an animal is, the lower the risk for disease.. this goes for all animals, and is actually something we focus on fairly heavily on the animal ag side of things on our ranch by using vitamin A & E shots and giving out minerals specific to things we need in our animal herd, and after seeing the advantages and overall herd health at home... I do think that nutrition can play a big part in an animals overall health.One thing I have been fairly vocal on is my displeasure with the game and fish department, but it's on a multitude of fronts, and if you do happen to follow the CWD page on FB.. you'll notice me asking questions about a few topics and looking for answers at advisory board meetings (only our districts), not just one topic. Do I think that the director of the Game and Fish Department should be an appointed or an elected position.. It should be elected. Do I think that there should be a "checks and balances" for them besides basically the governor signing off on the proclamation? Absolutely. But that doesn't stem back to just the CWD/baiting bill by any means.</blockquote>
