"If you want the challenge of huntng with a different weapon, so be it, but carving out a bunch of different seasons seems insane"
Ya got a good point, Fabs (as you usually do)
But, don't try to impinge on bowhunting season, unless you want to hear some real screaming.
NY state recently discussed revising their seasons, and one proposed idea was to have traditional ML season (1 week) within the month or more bow season. OMG, you shoulda heard the squealing!
