Personally I think those counties should all have a rifle season simply for the reason everyone could hunt anyway they chose being the deer belong to all of us and not simply the ones living/hunting thr. . Having said that I hope they beat the TP&W into submission and they don’t allow rifle seasons this year but if anyone truly thinks they can beat the man your sadly mistaken. He will be back again very soon and be a lot more prepared next time. It’s a long term loosing battle,

Gun hunters have the rest of the state to hunt, why not have a few bow only counties? In the mountain states there are plenty of rivers that are artificial or fly fishing only. Seems like a similar concept. As a landowner I knew it was bowhunting only when I bought the place. I worked long and hard to develop trophy animals and develop a skill set that will allow me to harvest those animals. Some other poster said it’s not fair for those that don’t have those skill sets to harvest game by a bow and arrow method to not be able to hunt. By that same logic we should all be allowed to play on the PGA tour. That just don’t make any sense.

The skill set argument don't hold water, go to youtube and type in 5 year old crossbow, there are multiple videos of little ones harvesting deer with archery equipment. Crossbow has been legal for anyone to use in Grayson county since 2009 and in Collin, Dallas, and Rockwall counties since they opened to archery deer hunting in 2012.

I wonder if it could be used to extend the season, example being a defined "muzzle loader" season and then perhaps redefining a "general season" to be "rifle & archery"? Sounds like it's a deeper issue than that, thinking out loud.

Listening to the commission meeting live stream https://tpwd.texas.gov/business/feedback/meetings/2022/0324/agenda/ appears they may not even take a vote on rule change tomorrow due to what was mentioned as "overwhelming" opposition to it.
