Friends,

 

I am sorry to interrupt your busy life with a special request. This is not some virus that hacked into my email list. I am only sending this to people that I consider my friends. I am asking for your help with the support of House Bill 2072 which will help secure long term funding to make sure that our wildlife are protected for the future generations. This bill creates a much needed firewall to ensure the protection of Arizona's wildlife.

 

It will help if Governor Brewer's office, and our House of Representatives were to hear from as many people as possible in support of this bill. Please send an e-mail and feel free to ask friends and relatives to contact them as well. I have included some talking points to use in your e-mail, but your letter needs to be in your own words!!. It does not need to be long, it just needs to communicate your support. It can be as simple as "I care about wildlife and support HB 2072".

 

There is a very vocal minority that is trying to oppose this bill. We need to be more vocal and let those in charge know that we support HB2072 and how passionate we are about protecting Arizona's wildlife.

 

Attached are all the email addresses in a word document that you can copy and paste directly into your BCC field on your e-mail. PLEASE SEND IT AS A BLIND COPY. That way each recipient cannot see who else it is being sent to. It should be received as a personal e-mail and not read as just a form letter with a massive distribution list. When you send the email to these people, I will also get a copy because I have included my name in the list.

 

Thank you in advance for your help. This is an important issue to me. Please do not wait. Send your supporting e-mail today.

 

Thank you!

 

Jim Hamberlin

 

Dear Representative,

 

HB 2072 is good for Arizona, good for wildlife, good for youth and good for sportsmen.

 

· The proposed sportsmen's expo will be a $25 million dollar annual economic / tourism driver to our state at a time when we need to help our economy.

 

· Our wildlife herds are steadily declining and more money is needed to offset issues related to the decline- revenue from the tags will help rebuild our herds

 

· There is not enough money to deal with the public lands access problem which is ever increasing - We need the additional revenues that will be generated by this legislation

 

· The department needs more money for youth recruitment- this is the future of our Game and Fish Department

 

· The auctioning of tags is not commercialization of wildlife. If so, then the department has already commercialized it with their existing special tags program.

 

· The number of tags is not have a statistically significant affect a sportsmen's ability to get drawn – one tag out of one hunt unit has a negligible impact. There are only 54 auction tags; the remainder are draw tags. The additional venue for raffling the tags will give sportsmen additional opportunities to be successfully drawn.

 

· The department currently pays for tags to be sent out of state to help other out of state sportsmen's banquets be successful; these tags need to stay in Arizona and be an economic draw for Arizona's economy

 

· Earlier criticisms of the bill are no longer valid as solutions to fix the concerns have been identified and will be added to the bill

 

· The criticisms about it benefitting only the rich man is ridiculous. The wildlife and the state of Arizona are the ones who benefit. All of Arizona's sportsmen will benefit. Most of the habitat projects in this state would not be done if not for the current limited special programs

We are asking for your opinion on HB 2072

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Arizona Bowhunters Association has been asked to provide a position statement on HB 2072 that was introduced by the Arizona Sportsman's for Wildlife. To say the least this has been a very hot topic in the sportsmen's community for the past couple months.

 

 

 

 

The ABA needs your input to ensure that we are speaking for the vast majority of Bowhunters in Arizona. Please take the time to read through the following two links that details some of the pros and cons of HB2072.

Please reply to Carl Schottel carlschottel@gmail.com

by March 12. Please let us know if you support or oppose this issue.

 

 

Thanks for your continued support,

Carl got my reply this morning.

I bet Team Greenback is salivating over the thought of all those rich clients with tags.

[DesertBull]

Nice of Hamberlin to supply a ready to cut and paste list of legislature contacts for us though. Much appreciated.

[2 Full Curls]

DesertBull thank you for posting the updates... I just sent Carl an email,

Email sent to ABA.

Now i can add triclawps to my list of things never to buy!

 

 

I wanted to take this opportunity to address this current hot topic regarding the proposed House Bill 2072 regarding Arizona's wildlife conservation. Understandably, this has been a heated and passionate event. Apathy does no service to the democratic process. We believe it is healthy and necessary as individuals to take notice and be heard anytime the future of wildlife conservation may be impacted, along with the possible effects it may have on us as sportsmen.

 

Having said that, Triclawps, LLC., is in the sole business of making a superior shooting platform for hunters and marksmen, period. Triclawps, LLC., is not in the business of politics. We do not and will not have a company position on HB2072.

 

The opinions expressed in the email posted above were sent from Jay Lopeman's personal email account, and were the personal thoughts of Mr. Lopeman himself. It was unfortunate to have our web address in Jay's automatic email signature, as it appears to have implied our official support of HB2072. It is unfair to assume that the individuals comprising Triclawps, LLC., share Jay's opinions, when in reality they could very well have no opinion, or one contrary to Mr. Lopeman. We would therefore ask that any questions, concerns, or statements regarding this email be directed to Mr. Lopeman himself, to give him the opportunity to explain or defend his beliefs.

 

Our company stands on its merits of manufacturing and providing the most versatile shooting support system on the market. Again, all of our efforts are spent in helping more sportsmen make more shots and thus create more memories in the field. If you'd like to discuss this further, send us an email via our website including your phone number. I'd be happy to discuss our non-position with you personally. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

I personally believe any business or org that hasn't paid to be a member or sponsor of azsfw should not have to make a political statement one way or the other. I don't feel we should callout anyone that hasn't volunteered their opinion publicly... and most know I'm not shy at debating anyone that makes a statement or engages me.

[Coach]

Nice reply TriClawps - very professional and to the point. Count me as a potential future customer. Great idea, by the way. I started trying to garage-shop my own, but it would be too heavy. Gonna have to ask the wife and kids for one for my birthday.

 

Good hunting,

Coach.

[coueshunter]

case smith. you should contact a lawyer and have a letter sent to lopman and mossback. you have been. needlessly drug into something that could have hurt your small business. thank you for this clarification letter....allen Taylor.....

[krp]

We have to be careful linking those that make public statements and those that don't but are dragged in by association or name dropping.

 

fairs...fair

Not having a position is the same as supporting it. If he was against it he would say he was. Get off the fence and either come over to the right side or you're on the same side as hamberlin and moss. Lark.

[elkaholic]

if you paste and copy above names ur are includung susanne and hamberlin - ok

People need to realize that their decisions in support of or against these house bills will affect their businesses,

business partners and way of life by association. Period.

 

Everything is public information and it's incredibly easy to figure out who owns what and for how long and in what way etc.

 

Some people will realize and learn this the hard way.
