Pete, Are you going to tape this (YouTube or whatever) so that we who are unable to attend could still get something from it?

Thanks Dean. I used to work for the department and the guy running the center used to work for me. I have done this (and a beginning waterfowl hunting seminar) a couple of times before. The first time for the crow an AP reporter showed up and a positive report of the seminar made the news all over the country via many newspapers including the Houston Chronicle and Atlanta Journal to name a couple. The crow hunt seminar is slightly controversial as the department always fields a few calls in advance from those who don't like the idea of crows being shot. In my mind all the more reason to do it as I think we need to push back against the people who would just as soon see no hunting at all.

It's always the 'naysayers' who complain the loudest. They think that by being openly vocal and "in your face" it somehow lends credence to their cause. We need to do what we do and do it better but we must not forget that we also must educate them to the truth of the matter of hunting as a right of American Heritage that we will NOT compromise on.
