Anyone seeing lions while out scouting?

[COOSEFAN]

I was at that meeting and there were quite a few real lion hunters present! Just like Amanda said, it was done to hopefully take some of the pressure off of the sport brought on by the anti's. It was funny to see the anti's get up and speak with all their power to push the changes though.......and then to see their reactions when the houndsmen stood up and AGREED with the changes!!! The anti's didn't know what was going on, I think they thought there was something going on behind the scenes! What really bothered me was that there was a News crew there and they spent all their time interviewing the individuals from the anti groups and very little with the houndsmen.....matter of fact, the News later aired the show and made it sound like the anti's won a huge fight against the lion hunters and put seleted clips of the meeting on the News to make it appear as such! We all wore white shirts to show our support for the lion hunters and the room was full of white shirts that day.......but that never made it on the News! The anti's were saying lion hunters kill kittens all the time and kill females with kittens all the time as well. The stats that were brought forth that day proved otherwise and it was obvious the anti's accusations were false......... again, that never made it on the News! JIM>

sounds like when i said it was done to appease huggers, i was right. i still see no need for it and am really trying hard to figure out why a guy who runs dogs would want anymore restrictions. after the sabino canyon debacle and the director and the commission caved to the governor and all the screamin' huggers, i always felt that was the beginning of the end. hope i'm wrong.

You guys are so right . The ARA won this one by forfeit . They may have been momentarily confused but they will come back emboldened. This is a win for them there is no other way to look at it . Another case of the blind leading those who cant see .

Boy you real lion hunters are geniuses! who would have thought if you just put restrictions, that dont need to be made on lions that it would keep you in the clear.

you guys really messed up, pissed off a lot of hunters. and i will put money on it that you guys will loose your right to hunt with hounds real quick. too bad, you might even have pissed off enough other "real" hunters who would have backed you other wise. real smart, who would have thought?????? i hope that you all know that you really hurt all hunting in AZ, this will put a real fire under the anti's and i bet they will come out full swing with some other crap. thanks buddy, after you clean up all that dog crap could you pull the knife out of our backs????

great job!

I was lucky enough to glass up a lion Friday morning. Had a tag in my pocket and a rifle back in my truck. I watched it for over an hour. Man was I upset that I couldn't do anything but watch. Oh well, thats what I get for obeying the law.
