Why not ban Easter hunting?
Then old Johnny that gets his old 270 out once a year only at Easter gives it some crc and packs 48 lion browns into a pack and heads into the hills ain't in there.
He's the type of guy that won't go in during the week and won't go in normal weekend.
Remove old Johnny and she's safer for us All??
The one common thing it seems to me is someone gets shot ever Easter..
As hunters I think we can agree on the fact we are all over it.

Not trying to pick a fight but yea that's all good and well if your lucky enough to have your own bit of private land to shoot on and can control who's there at given times some of us aren't so lucky and can only go when time and work permits may as well go the full hog and ban shooting all together then no one will ever get shot again possibly a better idea might be doing a safety course when applying for a permit

That's cool as mate
It's just my opinon and a idea I had
I can also only hunt when time and work permits
I just choice to not hunt at Easter and was throwing out there as idea to see what people thought
Talk of banning hunting all together is just a dick move.
All for Hunter education to make it safer for all of us. I'd certainly like to think with all the young guys I've taken out over the last few years I've done a fair bit of Hunter education with first timers.
